You know.. this is something to see. Media can take polls until they are blue in the face and drop dead from oxygen depravation. Those polls can say allllllll they want about anything the pollsters would like them to say.

THIS poll...NICS requests..is the one that can't be fudged and people can't lie on the phone about to screw with the poll taker. Here is the Poll where the numbers are the side effect, not the point...so it's reliable far beyond phone polls to 600 or 1000 "randomly" selected people.

THIS poll says Americans have no tolerance or time for Anti-gun freaks and their fanatic agenda. We saw this a couple times under bush's tenure during gun scares and the great bonanza of 2008/2009 where the sales were SO extreme...things like bullets, primers and gun powder was literally rationed at even the largest outlets like Cabelas and Bass Pro for lack of supply to meet the overwhelming demand. Not to mention...millions of actual guns selling so fast, every major gun producer in the nation was on back order for nearly 2 years running!

Yeah... the American people are speaking...they are SCREAMING.... but the damn politicians have set in their mind what they are GOING to do and what we think, like or want is totally irrelevant to their personal visions and agendas.

When next we can vote.... EVERY SINGLE INCUMBENT needs to go, I think. I don't care if they are your own family member serving in high office. If they are in, they need OUT. Crap like this shows it.

I assure you...promise you...this won't even slow down after Friday. This has nothing to do with Friday...this is about the fear of the President stomping the Second Amendment regardless of limitation or law. It was the same thing in 08/09..and it's a re-run. Back then? It ran over 20 months. This time? Hell... it may run his whole 4 years.

It's funny tho...with each passing day, thousands more "black guns" are in private hands.....10''s of thousands of "high capacity" magazines are being sold...and millions of rounds of ammunition are being made, sold and traded.

Ban?? lol.... ban what? No one will need to buy anything more for years.

The polls are bull puckey. Our corporate masters are just trying to shape opinion and prepare the masses for the inevitable. I don't believe their numbers. They are all falling in sync. Even David Letterman made comments last night.
