Any bets on if this poll just gets disappeared?

I bet it will get pulled. These dumb ass organizations don't like the truth. Even when it bites them in the ass. I voted. Love how its turning out.

I voted also. I hope pbs doesn't lock or remove the comments just because they overwhelmingly don't agree with their agenda.

It's currently 20,000 (92%) against more gun control to 1,600 (7%) for more gun control. This poll will be going the way of Jimmy Hoffa once the PBS lackey wakes up after a long night of crystal meth usage, public reading of the communist manifesto and finished off with a gay orgy.

Careful with the stereotyping now. I shoot regularly with a program director from KTCA.
Nothing to see here. Continue swimming.

Of course, I know there are exceptions to every rule. I also know that there are some die hard liberals that support the 2A. They are what I call .......unicorns :D

Just lay off the homophobic comments - we have many 2A supporters in MN and nationwide who happen to like members of the same gender...plus it doesn't make us look good.

Justa sayin'.

Mark is a heck of a nice guy! There are also some other members of this very group, well-respected, and very knowledgeable and supportive of #2A causes. Civil rights are for everyone...

That's the nice part about being single-issue focused...just because you support one cause typically associated with conservative thinking doesn't necessarily mean you support all conservative causes -- likewise just because you may vote a traditionally liberal topic, doesn't mean you throw in with every tax and spend Democrat.

I was referring to a comment further up about an "orgy".

Unicorns are for everyone.

Yikes! I missed that. Yeah, that's not cool. Well, orgies are cool. Comments that make them sound bad are not cool. You know what I mean.

I'm just really proud that my tax dollars fund a great bastion of accurate information like PBS.
