A new survey of voters by Fairleigh Dickinson Universityâ€™s PublicMind
finds that 29 percent agree with the statement, â€œIn the next few years,
an armed revolution might be necessary in order to protect our
libertiesâ€ â€“ including 18 percent of Democrats, 27 percent of
Independents and 44 percent of Republicans.

-------------------------------------------

Advocates for stronger gun controls aren't helped by making statements
like, "It's a start" (when the watered down bill for background checks
was being debated) and, "We can start with background checks, bans on
assault type weapons and limits on magazine sizes." Statements like this
were and continue to be made by people like Diane Feinstein and other
advocates for stronger gun control laws and by simple interpretation
leads one to believe there's more coming once those goals are accomplished.

I don't have any problem with universal background checks. It's a
common sense issue plus in my state we are subject to one anyway in
order to get a permit and each time we purchase a gun. You need a
permit just to buy ammo. However, the two Boston bombers were/are MA
residents, neither had a permit for handguns and neither had a firearm
background check. They still were able to obtain guns and kill with
them. I think everyone knows that background checks by themselves will
have little affect on the criminals of the world and therefore fully
expect much stronger regulations to be phased in over time. So, the
result is to oppose against *any* regulations or bans by many.

My favorite part of the survey:

The poll also found that 25 percent of those surveyed â€œthink that facts
about the shootings at Sandy Hook elementary last year are being
hidden.â€ 11 percent are unsure.

There are also those who believe the recent Boston bombings were staged
by the federal government. I'd bet a significant number of those folks
also believe the facts about the Sandy Hook shootings "are being hidden."

It is scary the number of people who think Bush and Cheney were behind
9-11.

Bush, no. Cheney?

I don't know what sort of braindeadness it must take to believe that
sort of crap. And the number who believe in it is fairly consistent, 25
to 35 per cent. It sort of speaks for the need for euthanasia.

I will admit, however, to still being in the dark about the
assassination of JFK. I feel in my bones that while Lee Harvey Oswald
pulled the trigger, "others" were involved.
