Here are the results of our “White Nationalists” Poll.  Politics Plus Polls are not scientific, because those who respond are not balanced according to demographic categories.   Therefore, we do not accurately reflect the makeup of the US population.  Nevertheless, our polls are usually factually accurate, and more often than not, they reflect the thinking of the majority of those who actually do think.

Other is requiring the military and all law enforcement agencies to enter their requisite data on domestic violence, etc. into the database used for background checks

All of the above, except “other”, as I have no answers to this American, and mainly cultural, problem. Americans in general want gun control, but after every mass shooting the number of new guns sold soars. Everyone thinks they’re a responsible gun owner, much like everyone thinks they’re a better driver then others. As soon as any of the above are going to be controlled through legislation and enforced, people will feel like their rights are taken away, because it’s others, not them, who are the bad guys.

I clicked all the them. They are all critical to stopping these massive senseless killings.

Okay, all of the above. The top two are critical because none of the others happen without them. I guess an “other” would be rein in the NRA which comprises about 2% of the American population. No single lobby should ever have that much influence.

 

All of the others are important but the one I think most needs doing is banning civilian ownership of assault rifles. Those are military grade weapons designed for killing human beings. They are not used in hunting anything but people. There is absolutely NO reason to allow them in civilian hands. Just none. If people want to shoot them, I admit while in the service, I actually enjoyed learning how to use the M14 (at that time) properly on a range, and later the M16. I wasn’t thinking about why, only the activity. So, the only way anyone should be able to use one is to rent one at a licensed range. No private ownership.

 

I was a hunter growing up. I haven’t hunted since before the army. I don’t consider it a “sport” in any way. I’d ban that too because no one in this nation actually needs hunt to feed their families any more and that bloodlust which drives this activity is something we need evolve away from. Even so, assault weapons are not used in hunting. Not allowed because those rounds can travel miles. So ban them. There’s more, but I’ll not turn this into more of a diatribe than it is. :^)

Yes, making guns/bullets/explosives more expensive to purchase should be a priority. If one is to take classes in all areas of arsenal, with training, it should show a record of competence and mental acuity too. I have great concerns for the safety and welfare of schools, churches, community centers, to name a few, where people rally together in friendship and in learning. We must find ways to do better for our communities, and the Nation as [expletive deleted bt Pollcode]

I am now a believer that bullets should be so expensive, most people can’t afford them.

 

I voted all of the above too.

 

Posted by Joanne D  August 5, 2019 at 6:10 am. From:  CO (US)    

 

All of the above, plus improve our handle on access to explosives. The fact that their terrorism has been expressing itself in gun violence for the most part has obscured that there are other means of destruction, a la Timothy McVeigh. If we take their guns but do nothing about other weapons, we are just setting ourselves up.

 

Also, to get to the root of the problem, we need to invest deeply in public education. Perhaps Germany could help us here – I really have no idea how to educate for deprogramming. I do know civics needs to be more and better taught. And to the extent that we allow charter schools and home schooling, we need to legislate requirements for them that will address this issue.

I voted for all but other.

The new poll is up, so please don’t forget to vote.

RESIST!!
