Gun Control Survey

And they are not posting results anymore...bastards. Someday I wonder which cartidges and firearms were designed by people trying to get the anger at gestapo out....
 
Last time I checked, 38.1% said "No more restrictions, dammit!", 38.1% said "Control areas in which guns are sold," (yeah, like that'll work), and the rest wanted to add more safety devices.
 
If this works go to:

The only way I could get there was

www.abc.go.com - then punch the world news button in the left bar. You get the results when you vote.

Needless to say the results were not mentioned on World News Tonight/Monday - I guess the vote was not anti-gun enough.
 
I went the way Mikey did and found it. here's the latest.
38.3% none- enough w/ the restrictions
37.9% tighter controls
12.3% longer waiting periods
11.4% more safety features
24,830 votes 6:30 Central time
vote, vote, vote!!!!!!

Typical horse manure survey:

1. Three options out of four would increase restrictions.
2. The pro-self defense response is the last response listed.
3. The question doesn't ask what we should do, but rather assumes a restriction by saying '... the most important restriction is:'.

I just love supposedly 'fair' surveys which clearly tilt the results. As so many have said, you can get the results you want if you control the survey.

In this case, even with a biased survey, about 38% still say they don't want any more restrictions. Unfortunately, we'll get to read that 62% do want more restrictions. Horse manure.
 
I voted.

Go to www.abc.go.com - then click on the "ABC NEWS" (not "world news") choice on the left column. The survey will be on the next page.

39.0% none- enough w/ the restrictions

Looks like we're winning, I wonder if anyone will ever know?
 
@ 11:15
39.3 None
37.2 Tighter
12.1 Longer
