Now, there's an argument that can be made for and against Gallup polls, but if you can't accept the validity of the question raised by Gallup's poor performance in the recent election, then you're delusional.

Never point a gun at anything you are not going to shoot, nor shoot anything you do not mean to kill

Gallup: 58% want more gun control; Ipsos: 70% want more gun control, 90% want background checks.

Yeah, uh, no. Not until you do some serious background checks on teachers.

GOP estimates of teacher competence have increased to the point of giving them concealed guns.

You know the GOP is unlikely to object to background check on teachers, the unions might

Not according to Gallup, just most US voters; Gallup DOES say 58% of the US wants more gun control.

Yes. Most of us aren't against guns per se; we're against the inane concepts of gun "shows"

Well Paul Ali Slater didn't, disarming is risky, and he seems familiar enough with them to me *NM*
