These numbers shouldn't be surprising. If you consider the number of uninformed citizens who aren't even close to knowing the ramifications.:banghead: Proves we have more work to do.

looks like they closed the poll already?

I just voted.

I'd like to see them replace it with a similar question:

Should all private car sales have to be conducted through a licensed car dealership?

Hell, look here at the 'age to carry' thread, there are plenty advocating their favorite reasonable infringements. SPIT on damn nasty reasonable-regulators asses.

And when they try to defend their 'opinion' it is by appeal to personal anecdotes. Can ought but I make a principled argument for anything, even the uninfringed Second Amendment? I dispair.

Either we are equal or we are not. Good people ought to be armed where they will, with wits and guns and the truth. NRA KMA$$

Yes, private sales should be subject to checks, but how could it be done?

Would you want to sell a gun to someone not allowed to have it? I sure as hell wouldn't.

The question what check is going to be run? On the purchaser only or would it include firearm serial numbers?

It seems it would be too much trouble to have such a system.
