Title: PUBLIC TAKES CONSERVATIVE TURN ON GUN CONTROL . . .
Post by: Blue Hen Firearms on May 05, 2009, 01:10:13 AM
According to a survey from the Pew Research Center released late last week, public attitudes on gun control have moved in a more conservative direction over the past year. For the first time in a Pew Research survey, nearly as many people believe it is more important to protect the right of Americans to own guns (45 percent) than to control gun ownership (49 percent). As recently as a year ago, 58 percent said it was more important to control gun ownership while 37 percent said it was more important to protect the right to own guns.
