    _______________________________________________

    This poll proves that Americans understand that guns proliferation is a major public health issue.

    Another issue on which the Conservatives are going against what the vast majority of the population wants.

    All that remains is a political will that will succeed in countering the systematic blocking of the Republicans on this issue.

    good think that polls of dubious validity don't determine how the USSC rules. Most of the people polled cannot tell you what an assault weapon is-other than the MSM constantly lies about those firearms.

    Just a question. I have an extensive gun collection. How does forcing me to wait 30 days make you safer?

    It doesn't and since criminals don't go through gun dealers, it is nothing more than designed to harass gun ownership

    They can want in one hand and sh*t in the other. It doesn't really matter what gun legislation gets passed going forward. It won't make a bit of difference as there are already over 300 million firearms and billions of rounds of ammunition in circulation. The cat has been out of the bag for quite some time now....

    I thought you wanted the status quo because guns brought more security.

    Now, you hide behind a constitutional block to validate your indefensible position.

    Do you want to discuss the necessity of private gun ownership, or do you want to discuss what a majority of the people think?

    Tell me which, because you can't jump back and forth to cover for your intellectual failure.

    In a democracy, the will of the people always comes to pass.

    Sooner or later.

    For a long time the pro 2A had the support of a large part of the population, but that time is over.

    So, those who want stricter laws will elect representatives who think like them and things will change.

    Fox? lol I thought only the ignorant trumpers got information from Fox.

    How bout a poll asking if Americans want their Second Amendment overturned?

    How bout a poll asking Americans if they want to be red flagged on an anonymous tip? Perhaps by an angry spouse during a divorce. Cause of course an angry spouse during a divorce would never make a false claim. How bout asking Americans if they want to be red flagged by a liberal doctor who discovers they are not a liberal - which by liberals standards means they are insane. lol

    Anyone else notive how "assault rifles" has morphed into "assault weapons"? The goal being to ban assault weapons (an absurd term) and the have as many guns as possible classified as assault weapons.

    One thing is obvious to me. Liberals do not care about public safety and crime. They have another agenda.

    Can one of my liberal friends define an assault weapon? Help me out.

    Failure of liberals to propose amending the second amendment is dishonest and cowardly.

    In our republic, our rights are protected by the supreme law of the land: The Constitution.

    The Constitution can only be amended with a vote by 2/3 of the House, 2/3 of the Senate and 3/4 of the states.

    Your "that time is over" claim does not reflect the growing legal ability to carry a concealed handgun in the US. In twenty two States a handgun can be carried without a permit. Must other State require a permit to be issued subject to a background investigation. Even in the most liberal places in the US, take NYC, people like Howard Sterns or Donald Trump get concealed carry permits. Diane Fienstein has a gun permit in CA which issues permits to those who are connected but not the little people .

    So your "time is over" is not indicated by facts.

    Stop hiding behind the constitution.

    You're ready to rip it up when it's time to storm the Capitol to overturn an election.

    You don't live in a Democracy and without 2/3rd votes from the states, there is no repeal of the 2nd amendment.

    well none though I have a semi auto version. due the democrats the cost went from about 4K to 20K for one of those things and They'd be one of the last full autos I would buy. most of the ones criminals had in the depression era were stolen from NG or police armories since few were ever offered for sale on the retail market
