A poll hosted by the MSNBC asked respondents a simple question: Do you think people should be allowed to carry guns in public?
Given that it’s MSNBC, the leftist conspiracy machine, hosting the poll, I doubt they thought the results would be so favorable to our beloved Constitution.
At the time this post was published, more than 547,000 people voted and 92% of them answered “Yes! The second amendment guarantees it.”
The breakdown is as follows:
Presidential hopeful Beto O’Rourke learned that gun grabbing is not a winning argument in these here parts. During the last Democrat presidential primary debate, O’Rourke threw a “take ALL the guns!” Hail Mary and is still polling at nothing percent.
This is, after all, America.

The anti gun lobby is cheering on DICK’s, but most SJW snowflakes never set foot in your stores.
Gun people are also outdoorsy, you know; tents, fishing tackle, hunting gear, knives, etc. etc., do you think they will continue to buy from DICK’s?
So NRA’s skyrocketing membership are targeted by liberal retailers to ‘not’ buy their products?

Study after study, including FBI stats, sheriff’s dept.s and the Journal of the American College of Surgeons, even internationally, conclude:
More guns = less crime.
So why are socialists, left progressives, globalist corporations and the America hating UN so relentlessly bent on dis-arming it’s citizens? History of genocide knows why.

Logged in to thumbs up! I got a good laugh out of the results as well!

That third answer, “Only for self-defense”, would require the carrier to KNOW IN ADVANCE that he or she would be assaulted sometime after going out in public carrying the gun.
When you know:
Being white and on any Washington Red Line platform.
Being elderly on southwest Chicago at night.
My basic rule is that if I “need” a gun where I’m going, I don’t go there.
My crystal ball is broken, meaning one never knows what will happen, when or where. My “rule of thumb” is : whatever can go wrong, will go wrong, and the only possible cure for this is Be Prepared.

More People Use a Gun in Self-Defense Each Year Than Die in Car Accidents

“This simple fact is Australia had a massive gun confiscation and rapes increased by half or more over the next decade. While the US saw a fifty percent drop in rapes while the number of guns owned by American DOUBLED.”

Study Shows NO Relationship Between Concealed Carry, Homicide or Violent Crime
December 10, 2018
https://gunsinthenews.com/study-shows-no-relationship-between-concealed-carry-homicide-or-violent-crime/
With the wording of the questions, I think they pollsters were trying to split the “Yes” votes into two different groups, so the “No” choice would dominate.
It surely didn’t work out the way they hoped.
They’ll wind up ignoring the giant elephant whale shark in the poll question and end up telling the public that their poll was evenly divided between the two 4% answers.
It’s not what they tell us, it’s what they don’t tell us.
We all know that certain areas, certain peoples, represent much greater risk. Our police officers know where and who need much more attention, and they know that one group represents a bit over 18 fold more risk of their being killed. How is it that 13% of the population over all commit crime at more than seven times the average and kill police over 18 times more often than the average. Those are pretty damming statistics.
I just voted! Good times…. TY NBC!
So did I.
To ge fair, if you are going out in a Democrat controlled city then you know in advance you’re going to need that gun for self defence.

Shooters all democrats…
Democrat control, not gun control the solution?

Clearly, there is a problem with democrats and handling guns while wanting to flood our country with diseased, un-vetted, illiterate, military aged male Islamists while calling to dis-arm US citizens and abolish our 1st amendments and limit our 2nd and 4th amendments.
Not one NRA member, Tea Party member, or Republican conservative was involved in any of these shootings and murders.
Very nice.
Yes, the poll is still live.
Go vote folks.
Thanks Kemberlee!!!!
My state open carry has been legal since it became a state.
Actually, it’s 96% for, 4% against.
Better yet.. You can still vote.
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/poll-do-you-think-people-should-be-allowed-carry-guns-public
So this isn’t even a 5% issue for the Dems. It’s a 4% issue. Selling cancer is so-o-o-o-o expensive.
I don’t own a gun, but I support the people who do so.
People forget that gun ownership in the United States served as a deterrent to invasion by Japan in WWII. Japan had a few military officers that understood the consequences of trying to deal with an armed civilian populace.
Not to worry; availing themselves of a time-honored technique, MSNBC will soon find a ballot box full of uncounted votes in the trunk of a car, and that will make it all come out right.
It’s now edged up to 93% for yes.
Yep, they’ve stolen a percent from the “Only in self-defense” category.
🙂
The Democrats are the best thing that has happened for gun/ammo sales this year. They had slipped a little bit after President Trump was elected but are rebounding now.
You should have seen the number of gun stores that went out of business during Bush’s 8 years. Of course, they, and the entire AR-15 market were mostly there because of Klinton, used car turned black rifle salesman.
Voted and up to 93%
the question does not address whether they are talking about open carry or concealed carry. i know to some it does not matter but many people are uncomfortable with open carry but what they don’t know seems to calm them down.
I’m pretty sure you won’t see MSNBC hyping this poll all day tomorrow.
And the left will claim it’s all Russian bots.
601K vote yes.
for the lefties that are quick to say “the majority of the country” in any debate they chose, they won’t likely quote this poll. rest assured they will continue with the stupidity they follow and quote “the majority of the country favor more gun laws.” this poll will be meaningless to that ilk.
Beto, might as well start packing, his gun grabbing days are over, as well as his chances of being elected.
I would like to know when it happened that Constitutional rights became subject to negotiation on one hand, and public polls on the other. They are doing this for The Second Amendment, they seem to be trying to do it for The First Amendment, so can the others be far behind? To say this is dangerous for all of our citizens is to understate the situation…
I guess the name “Hechingers” doesn’t mean anything to them.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/business/1997/07/21/the-fall-of-the-house-of-hechinger/9c2664b8-0d4f-433c-a514-2658d7691541/
Experts familiar with Hechinger say the Largo-based company lost its way when it abandoned its roots as an upscale, neighborhood hardware store for the handyman and the homeowner, and instead tried to imitate a new breed of home center introduced by Home Depot Inc.
or:
It use to be called Hechinger Lumber until the owner gave a big cash donation to the Handgun Control and put out a press release bragging about it.
Hey, lets tick off all the blue collar tradesman customers who hunt on the weekend. That is a sound business move.
They literally could not go out of business fast enough.
