"If 70% of American's are OK with gun restrictions"

Is a misleading statistic, one that is very likely skewed
based on the organization who conducted the survey.

For example, if CNN posts a poll about how many Americans
just love Obama to death, they'll get an overwhelming positive
response simply based on the fact that CNN ( and it's audience )
is pretty much Pro-Democrat.

If the same poll were conducted over on Fox, the result would be
overwhelmingly negative, for the same reasons. ( They just are
all Pro-Republican )

Statistics can be manipulated by just about anything. Thus, are
they rarely accurate.



If you want another reason why folks oppose any sort of firearm
registration, you need only look at what happened recently when
some self-rightous idiots published that data for the world to
see.

If all individuals were law abiding, I wouldn't care if my name
was on that list. However, we know they are not and all the
paper did was give folks a list of homes to hit ( or not if they
are trying to avoid a possible armed response ) at their leisure.

I did find it somewhat hypocritial that the paper resorted to
utilizing armed guards at the front door after publishing said
paper :D
