Kind of points to how lopsided the news polls are though. They average 100 to 1000 people, all taken from their subscribers who usually lean left in the first place. 1,000,000 is a much better representation than 1000 don't you think?

Depends on where the poll is from, if it's from a right-leaning publication, it would have the same bias.

 

HOWEVER, even if it is more biased towards supporting guns, larger sample sizes still give a more representative view of the actual picture. It's still far more representative than a 1,000 person sample.

 

I really don't think that firearm regulations are popular as a whole, perhaps in some more liberal areas, but generally I think most of the population isn't concerned about it. The only problem is that most would oppose a new AWB, but wouldn't get as pissed over registration or something like that. That's somewhat unnerving.

While we all enjoy seeing numbers like that, Newsmax is a pretty conservative news outlet.

This.

 

Even though the source is pretty conservative, this is much larger than most polls anti-gunners boast about. Hell even studies used much less people, like some of the Harvard studies anti-gunners always post.

Heck, I stopped at the White Diamond in Clark on my way back home earlier today. There were about 7 of us there, none of knew each other, well someone saw my NJGF shirt and commented. We all realized that were were amongst 100% pro gun people and had a good conversation for the next 30 minutes. Each of them noted my shirt and I gave them the NJ2AS website to join.

 

Big difference from when I brought my daughter to get her braced adjusted a month ago and someone was talking about guns being bad. I'm sorry but I had to speak up to that person and had every other person in there chime in defending their right to own firearms. Doubt we changed anyone's mind, but I sure hope all the other gun owners that chimed in when someone else speaks up learns that they should speak up and try and educate someone that's misguided. That and I hope the anti that was there remembers how it was like to be outnumbered and maybe might stat to think about that.

 

By the way, I did offer to bring the guy and his kid who was saying he was against guns and I would be happy to take them with my daughter who happens to join the conversation with his son who was waiting to go in as she was coming out to see the dentist. It was close to my 13yo daughter just shy of laughing that this big about 15yo boy was scared a gun might just up and jump off a table and shoot him on its own.

 

Don't get me started on the convo she had with her teacher who she told if she could vote, she would have cancelled out her vote being her teacher said she likes Obama.

Haha I was at the White Diamond in Clark on Friday night. Great place.

 

Anyway I get no such luck when gun discussions start, that might be because of the Liberal lean Kean University seems to have. My professor today showed that dumb friggin cartoon by Michael Moore in "Bowling for Columbine" and the proceeded to say the 2nd Amendment is for state national guards, then talked crap about gun owners saying they were over compensating for small penises. People were nodding in agreement and laughing. Ugh, he said next class we will have a whole class debate about it. Boy am I ready to drops some real knowledge. Not idiocy and insults.

Yeah, be sure to look up the grammatical breakdown of the Second Amendment, I forget exactly what it is, but I'm pretty sure the way it is written shows that it is the right of the people.

 

What class is it? Legally they can't inject personal belief into the class room. Be sure to get totally solid facts and stuff, and make him look like a **** in front of the class.

 

...Yeah, I'm at Rowan, I do the same thing with my professors ocasionally.
