There are five questions in this survey at Newsmax.com:

Look at the yes/no percentages for questions 1 & 2, and compare them to the percentages for 3 & 4.

 

Question 5 is interesting on it's own.

 

Am I missing something? It seems like two completely different groups of people answered the first two questions as opposed to 3 and 4. And I don't find the questions' phrasing at all misleading.

 

Or do I need more coffee?

Because you understand the term semi-automatic. Most people hear the word "automatic", nothing else, and equate to full auto fire. This is what their answer is based on. I wish we had a better term than "semi-automatic" or "autoloading". People are really that stupid. Ban what they don't understand or care to. This is why liberals love a dumb population. Easier to control. Thinkers are a danger to them. Keep on thinkin'

Left they out question 6.

 

Do you have basic reading comprehension abilities?

 

Yes_________________20%

 

No__________________15%

 

I'm confused__________65%

Well, I emailed them and told them to fix their button mapping, because the results were completely and logically inconsistent.

 

Unless of course Bonesinium is right.

 

Sigh.

I can't stand this crap anymore.

It's a trick to get you to sign up for their newsletter, IMHO.
