I am passing this on as information because we may not all hear about this due to the general media intentionally refusing to acknowledge, let alone report, such. Use this information if appropriate to inform your congresscritters what Obama and Bloomberg report is false.
Copied and edited for brevity.
The National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action conducted a national scientific poll of its members and found near unanimity among NRA members on a wide range of issues involving mental health reform and firearm rights.
Gun control advocates, including New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, as well as various media outlets, have released data claiming to represent the views of NRA members, despite the fact that none of those surveys had access to the NRA’s membership list.
“Mayor Bloomberg’s claims that gun owners are divided are totally false. It is nothing more than an attempt by anti-gun activists to further their long-standing political agenda.”
Key Findings:
•91% of NRA members support laws keeping firearms away from the mentally ill.
•92% of NRA members oppose gun confiscation via mandatory buy-back laws.
•89% oppose banning semi-automatic firearms, often mistakenly called “assault rifles”.
•93% oppose a law requiring gun owners to register with the federal government.
•92% oppose a new federal law banning the sale of firearms between private citizens.
The margin of error for this survey is +/- 3.09%.
