Did my part (both in voting and in spreading the word to The High Road, The Firing Line, and MikesMadhouse on Baen's Bar).

"Allowed", huh?

FYI: the "Day poll" is 2 weeks old.

does USAToday not update their website?

"Allowed", huh?

Seriously. "Allowed" by whom?

I'm not going to vote b/c there's no option for "We are keeping them. Deal with it."

I tell you one thing, that gun they show for 2009 is awfully small. What is that? S&W Micro sub compact?

I found the original post date near the bottom, 10/13/2009. I wonder if they didn't get the results they wanted and tried again

Yes, to be honest, the fact that they used the word "allowed" in the title is frightening...

Maybe Ms. Speaker of the House wrote the survey...

I have a poll question

Should we be allowed to exercise free speech?

Excellent analogy...

I'm pretty unimpressed with USA Today lately.

 

[DRob]

I worry

Even though the percentage is very small, I worry about people who vote "I don't know" in a voluntary poll!

[Bill of Rights]

Should those who publish newspapers and magazines be allowed to do so, even if they would willingly all over the rest of the Constitution?

Better question, why isn't gun ownership universal in America as it is mandatory in Switzerland?

 

[jblomenberg16]

Just voted, and also sent a letter to the editor (like I usually do).

To whom it may concern:

I saw the recent poll on the USA Today website. I wanted to make a simple statement about the question in the poll. You see, it isn't in fact a question at all. The 2nd Ammendment to The Constitution of the United States clearly specifies that "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Gun owners are already "allowed" to have their guns in their homes, cars, and on their person. I think the question the poll is trying to ask is: "Does the 2nd ammendment still apply?" The answer is quite simply, YES!

Maybe we should have a poll set up the other way - Do current efforts of Federal and State Goverments to control firearm ownership, and limit the locations that law abiding citizens carry their guns infringe on the 2nd Ammendment?

That is a great poll question. I feel that we should, but if you are not in the right places, you might not be able to.

Poll is now 78% for the big 3

8 % for not "allowed" to keep.
