Jeff, you voted one minute after him let the servers catch up. Looks OK to me now progresswise, though we have a lot of catching up to do.

Voted. 23/77

Also, click on the link on the results window.

...said Rep. Chris van Hollen, D-Maryland...

He also decried a provision in the law that critics contend allows owners of legal firearms to replace the housing for the firing mechanism and turn them into illegal assault weapons. He tied the loophole to October 2002 sniper attacks that killed 10 people in van Hollen's Maryland district, Virginia and the District of Columbia.

"We need to close that loophole, because real bullets that killed real people went through those loopholes," van Hollen said.

What in the world is he talking about? I think this one take the prize for the most incoherent drivel I've read so far.

 

[onerifle]

77%-23%... Looks like we're making a little progress...


I can't help but notice the wording though..."lifting" a ban seems so much more dramatic to the sheeple than "allowed to expire as scheduled".

Not as though wording ever skews poll results towards a previously desired result...

 

[4v50 Gary]

23% for lifting of ban when I voted.

 

[Cal4D4]

All the way up to 24% Lifted.

 

[mrapathy2000]

come on folks keep it going its 25 to 75 now

 

[clange]

25-75

Stupid cnn. That article was trash.

 

[bigjim]

anybody post this on other forums....

I bet if the gun community made a real effort here we could reverse this one too.

You can count on it that FeinSWINE will use the results of this poll to show how loving, caring, true blue Americans really feel about guns.
