Edited to add: this was originally posted at o.com.Some of their membershave been posting stating they took the survey--their opinion could severely skewer the survey which was posted by one of their members--I just think it's fair we take the time to check and balanceby also taking it :D

The wording of the questions was skewed and manipulative. At times it was also just flat asking about something that does not exist in reality.

Did anyone else wonder why age, "ethcnicity", and other demographic info was required? And given that, how come "occupation" was not required - afraid of getting too many "welfare leech" responses?

stay safe.

A survey I once took, but in my mouth a foul hole released nasty stuff, so I am really at a loss to make anything else rhyme .... unless it means a really good time ....

Surveys and polls generally have their questions skewered and manipulated to produce a lopsided opinion.

The questions about age, ethnicity and occupation are questions that you could answer truthfully or not--and the survey taker would truly never know--as in all questionnaires, the results produced depends on the honesty of those answering the questions...

nope, not oprah.

I like to visit their site now and then to get a feel for how they think. It can be quite an eye opening, mind boggling experience at times I admit.

I took it... and took my time doing it. In short and partially... Rights would exist if there were no government at all. Rights are not granted by government. Government has no rights... only authority granted by the people. Government abuse of that authority is tyranny.

Well at lease it is good to know some of "those open carry whack jobs" (#3) got to put in some say on the survey.

that's exactly why I posted it here :D

Their feelings toward the people can be eye opening.

just remember--when it asks "ethnicity" I think it means "human" like Pavepusher stated earlier ;)
