It's towards the bottom on the right side and currently trending at 69% saying "no" and 31% saying "yes".

You know 98% of poll final numbers either agree with the pollees idea or are never mentioned again OR are just plain made up (like 98% ;-)

Is it posted to arfcom yet? Those soccer hooligans love to crush polls like that, and there are about eleventy-billion basement dwelling teenagers who sit on that website all the live-long day.

68/32 now...........look at raw numbers now 2110 total votes.....took 50 votes to change percentage by 1. It will take more votes to change percentages as total numbers go up.

Still an extremely small sample

I find it hard to believe there were only 2000 votes. I've seen this link all over.

Absolutely the US needs stricter gun laws.

Why, under current law, a fit, adult male who isn't a member of the police or military might not even own a gun, let alone be trained in how to use one.
