Chronicle Poll: What, if any, gun control measures would you support?

[M60]

Am I reading this poll correctly? 75 people voted against ass!

 

[amm5061]

Done

Currently -
None:210
Ban of assault weapons: 114
Extensive background checks: 103

The problem here is that an anti will read those results and say: "A majority of people support stricter gun control!"

I wish they would just do a verifiable background check, same as I get for work. Do it for every person who wants to get a firearm license. Once you get it your DONE, and it should be good USA wide. Shouldnt have to get separate licenses and it should cover CC in all 48 lower states and Alaska (I will never go to Hawaii). If for some reason you are arrested for Domestic Abuse, or Drugs or whatever felony, then it gets removed and you have to either transfer your firearms to your next of kin or designated trustee. Id be good with that.

Agreed. No surprise that it's slanted to have more questions leaning toward gun control vs. away from it.

 

[Golddiggie]

I do not support banning ass.

I'm in support of nice ass. Ugly ass should be banned. Or at the very least covered up to protect our eyes.

 

[Osofast]

Done

 

[Individualist]

Keep it going

None 291
Ban Ass 143
Excessive 124

None is up to 293 - it's taking multiple votes.

I can understand people voting "none" for gun control. I expect a few people to vote "extensive" for gun control. But who thinks of banning ass when talking about guns

 

[TC McQuade]

They are gaining!

 

[42!]

None at 300
Ban AW about 150

 

[TheoC]

Done. Right now the "None" choice is leading by a wide margin.

 

[Rekonn]

Looked at top right, then entire page, I don't see the poll. Is it just my pre-morning-coffee eyes, or did they take it down?

Apparently they didn't get the results they were looking for!

I never could understand this. When that friend of mine got his head blown off in 2009 by a kook, I blamed the kook, not the gun.

Liberal logic doesn't work that way. You always blame the gun and the circumstance that led to the event. Once people are willing to except that then it doesn't really matter who did the shooting. Chances are if asked no one will even remember this whackos name. However they will remember what weapon he used only because that was mentioned so many times.

Fetishism - Wikipedia

A fetish (derived from the French fétiche; which comes from the Portuguese feitiço; and this in turn from Latin facticius, "artificial" and facere, "to make") is an object believed to have supernatural powers, or in particular, a human-made object that has power over others. Essentially, fetishism is the emic attribution of inherent value or powers to an object.
