Huffington Post Gun Law Poll

Huffington Post/Yougov gun law poll
Do you think gun control laws should be made more or less strict than they are now?
- More strict
- No change
- Less strict
- Not sure
I would really love to see us own them on their own poll, but "more strict" is willing by a large margin.

http://www.usnews.com/opinion/articles/2011/02/11/Should-congress-ban-high-capacity-ammo-clips

Should Congress Ban High-Capacity Ammo Clips?
Yes or no question

Once again, they've phrased the question in such a way that it makes them sound like imbiciles.

NYDailyNews Gun Poll

Link To Poll

This one is not going well, please hit it.
Obama must man up on guns -- take the political heat and fight for sane limits to firearm sales.
What do you think of current gun laws in the United States?
  • Current laws are too strict. Any infringement upon gun owners' rights is an infringement upon the 2nd amendment.
  • Current laws are not strict enough. We need to regulate access to deadly weapons.
  • Not sure

What's a 31-bullet clip?  Some kind of reloading tool, I guess?   :P

Concealed Carry Poll - Connecticut Courant

Link to Connecticut Courant poll on concealed carry.

Should Connecticut Allow Open Carrying Of Guns?
Should Connecticut continue to allow people to carry permitted handguns openly?
  • Yes. We allow people to own guns after going through a screening process, so why not let them have their holstered guns in plain sight?
  • No. When a private citizen walks into a public place with a handgun visible for all to see, it can create a sense of fear or intimidation -- or something worse.
  • Not sure

MSNBC Concealed Weapons Poll

Link to MSNBC Newsvine Poll

How safe do you feel knowing there are people around legally carrying concealed guns?
  • Very safe: If a crime is committed or a threat of violence made, they’ve got the means to respond.
  • In danger: These people could be trigger-happy yahoos or stumblebums whose weapon might go off by accident.
  • Not sure: How would we know? Wouldn’t it depend on the state laws involved and circumstances?
Thanks to John R. Lott, one the best gun control researchers, for posting the link.

MSNBC "Assault Weapons" Poll

Link To Poll

"Should President Obama push to permanently reinstate a ban on assault weapons?

Congress imposed a ban on what it called assault weapons in 1994, outlawing the sale and importation of 19 military-style weapons, copycat models with similar features, and high-capacity ammunition magazines. In a compromise with Republicans, the Democrats who controlled Congress agreed to let it expire in ten years unless it was renewed. By 2004, with Republicans in charge, support had evaporated.

  • Yes. We had the ban for 10 years. He should use up whatever political capital is necessary to reinstate the ban.
  • No. It was a mistake the first time around and it would be a mistake again. Existing gun laws are enough.
  • Maybe. Owning a gun is a right, but I'm conflicted as to whether or not average Americans should be able to own assault weapon"

Cook County Gun Control Ordinance Poll

The latest from the Yahoo! GunVote Group. It only takes a minute, maybe two. I think I only selected option "1" once.

"Gun poll in Cook County, IL, Right NOW in CHICAGO:

To justify passage of gun control ordinances designed to close all gun
shops, then ban and confiscate the guns owned by citizens of Cook
county Illinois, the County Board is conducting a telephone poll.

Here is how to voice your opposition to this infringement on the
rights of Chicagoland residents:

Call 1-312-603-6400 and select Option #1 when prompted.

At the next prompt, select Option #1 again. [there's a bunch of
status on other matters before they get to this prompt]

Then, when prompted to vote on the gun control ordinance, press #2.

Call! Because the rights we fight for are the ones we keep. You should
also forward this alert on to all your gun owning friends and have
them vote too. You should also post this alert to any and all Internet
bulletin boards or blogs to which you belong.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A RESIDENT OF COOK COUNTY TO VOTE!

Poll: PBS Asks If Palin is Qualified

Link To PBS Poll

"Do you think Sarah Palin is qualified to serve as Vice President of the United States?"

Please vote "Yes." Although I'm not sure that it will help all that much in the grand scheme of things, I really really really don't want Obama/Biden to win in November.
