That's a waste of time considering it only allows you to vote one time per computer. :p

I voted from my MacBook and my iPhone.

Funny thing about the comments on that poll is that a LOT of the really ANTI comments are from people in MD. People, who, apparently HAVE NO CLUE as to what their own State Laws are. In MD, if you have a permit, it has been legal to carry (concealed OR open) in a bar or restaurant for YEARS... :cuss:

And we all know about those types of "gun nuts" in MD that have permits--radical right-wing folks like Senator Barbara Mikulski, and the like. :banghead:

Political elitism is a mental illness, and it has reached pandemic proportions in MD and DC.

I say we quarantine those areas, and just seal them up in a big, inflatable Kevlar bubble, and let them sort it out amongst themselves...



BTW, the poll is now 60/40 in our favor...:celebrate

NBC4 news at 5pm just did a pretty bad job covering the bills that were passed...
They said a bill passed that will allow Virginians to carry guns in bars. We can already carry guns in bars.
Then they said a bill also passed that will allow Virginians to buy more than one gun a month. We can already buy more than one gun a month.

The poll just crossed over the 20,000 vote threshold and we've got a good 3-1 margin. Of course the authors will just say we stuffed the poll, and discount any significant meaning.

Such is the life of an ostrich with its head in the sand.

How about asking if we believe that people WITHOUT GUNS should be allowed in restarunts? It makes the same amount of sense!
