Done... the disagree and strongly disagree are 40% higher than the agree and strongly agree numbers. 4504 to 2734. I don't know why the Left doesn't get it.

And in the video, it says something about a "forward trigger grip". What the heck is that?

Don't look now, but they just expanded the category - ". . . the most popular of the millions of assault-style rifles owned by Americans."

So what exactly, is an "assault-style" rifle? Does my .270 bolt qualify? What about my 2+1 semi-auto shotgun? M&P 9mm semi-auto handgun?

The left really does love moving targets!

This is really the root of the problem. People demanding "something" be done and we "pass common sense gun laws" have no idea how these things work and can't have an actual intelligent conversation.

The poll won't show on my phone...

Something that was pointed out on Instapundit, the other day, in regard to Texas:

The media keeps referring to the shooters gun as some scary assault weapon. The good guy who shot back, according to the media, did so with his "rifle". Both were an AR-15.

Oh we're eating USA Today's lunch...

62% "Strongly Disagree" with their position.

If that doesn't tell them "STFU about firearms already" Nothing will..

That's what the Commie/Progs haven't figured out... Even THEIR side wants to own firearms. it's just the ELITE, and POLITICIANS that are terrified of an armed populace!
