Front page article, "Do you have a legal right to own a gun?"
Written by Joan Biskupic.
Picture of a snub revolver colored as the American flag on top of the Constitution.
Lots of glaring falsehoods, a couple that stood out to me.
"Current laws ban private ownership of machine guns and limit possession of firearms that can go undetected by metal detectors or x-ray machines."
USA Today Gallup poll was also published. I think we may have hit this poll IIRC.
"Do you believe the SA guarantees the rights of Americans to own guns, or does it only guarantee members of state militias such as National Guard units the right to own guns?" Generally overwhelmingly voted 'Right of all Americans' vs 'Only state militias'.
Now, since when is the National Guard a state militia? How did they even arrive at that assumption?
Here I am reading this article the other day at the coffee shop, snickering and going 'Pssshhh' almost constantly.
