        I don't know what you're basing your opinion on, but there is absolutely no evidence to support this assertion.

          There’s probably another poll from some rabid anti-gun person who linked to a Bloomberg gun control forum and that poll looks like the direct opposite of this one.

          What’s worse is that this “poll” page contains display ads from which MSNBC gets paid! You guys are actually just bringing in ad revenue for MSNBC thinking that someone else except for you guys is going to see this poll. I’m in the digital business, this is just a brilliant content marketing strategy, requiring little to no user acquisition spend. Free traffic to pages with ads = free ad revenue.

          Yep; and ironically, so few gun owners actually vote in REAL 'polls'.

          California's documented numbers of voters the past dozen (or more) times election/proposition polls have been open - prove that to be true.

          Oh, but everyone gets so excited about superficial 'online' polls, as if they carried any meaning at all.

          So long as nobody needs to do more than the instant gratification in Pavlov feedback by way of a button, we're doing OK!

          If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

                  Call me paranoid, but I'm not confident in MSNBC's restraint regarding not manipulating their poll results.

                    I love how they have 2 yes answers and 1 no.

                    But anyways this poll is got to be 5-6 years old now.
