Good news is good news. Less people blaming inanimate objects for the acts of criminals and the deranged. Logic prevailing.

Lost in the applause for the direction of change is the terrifying realization of how many people in the US find revocation of one of our core rights favorable. A great reminder of why the Founders gave us a Constitutional Republic rather than a democracy. Still- given what happened in 1994 with the "Assault Weapon" ban, it's a concerning demonstration of how fragile a "God-given" right actually is. Well, that, and California...

Notice the segue from article title of "assault weapon" to "semi-automatic" rifles farther into the article. And that the Gallup questions asks about semi-automatic guns "also known as 'assault weapons'". Just as they did turning the "gun show loophole" into "universal background checks" because we told them they were dumb*sses, after being told "there's no such thing as an AW, they're just semi-rifles" guess what - the gun control folks have again decided we're right and will treat all semi firearms as AWs. And the largely disinterested public will fail to note the difference or deliberate misuse of the word.

Anti's are Always playing Word Games. Remember "Fully Semi Automatic " ? Its Amazing to me that 57%, though a majority, is still woefully short of where Americans should be on the issue. But After Decades of Anti 2A Propaganda from Leftist:
A lot of Well Meaning, But Ill Informed Americans, think they are Doing the Right Thing in supporting Gun Control, like the proverbial "Soccer Moms". If they hadn't been Lied to for close to half a century, where do you suppose the figure would be ? My Guess it would be closer to 75% to 80% in support of 2A, not this Luke Warm support of 57%...
