In a world where everybody has the right to tell WiS off for being an annoying dumbfuck (this world), you can go fuck yourself.

Automatic weapons are extremely rare and highly regulated and crimes committed with them are even rarer.
Which just illustrates my point that what to ban/regulate should be the first discussion.

@14: Automatic weapons are very rare in private hands and have been illegal to produce or import since 1986 - are you wanting to make them EVEN MOAR illegal?

I belonged to the latter. You?
Posted by Will in Seattle]]> Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:47:20 -0800 The Stranger <![CDATA[Re: New Poll: Washington State Voters Overwhelmingly Support Stricter Gun Laws]]> An "assault weapon" is any rifle, carbine or pistol that is:
a. semi-automatic
b. has a removable magazine
c. AND THIS IS THE IMPORTANT ONE - has certain cosmetic features that do no have an effect on its usage in 99.99% of crimes committed.

A gun that is NOT an "assault weapon" is any rifle, carbine or pistol that:
a. is semi-automatic
b. has a removable magazine
c. does NOT have certain cosmetic features.

Which brings the discussion around, again, to what would be regulated/banned (and grandfathered in) rather than whether X% people support regulating A, B or C.

It is biased in that it steers the person answering to answer along the lines of the eight states mentioned. Subtle, but it is there.

This is why phone polls are always suspect. It is very easy to get any answer based on how you phrase the question. If you ask, "should illegal immigrants be given access to public schools on the taxpayer's dime?" people usually say "no," but if you ask, "should illegal immigrants be barred from public education?" people almost always answer "no" as well.

Same question, different phrasing, different answers. It's easy.

It's biased because it doesn't acknowledge that you might be at an airport with a prissy Andy Sipowicz during a snowstorm when armed mercenaries take over the control tower and threaten to crash your wife's and Chief O'Brien's planes in a ploy to free a Latin American dictator, and the only hope of preventing this is if you have more than 10 bullets in your clip. After hearing this, you support a law to limit ammunition clips on guns to 10 bullets?

12. There is no law limiting certain high-capacity magazine clips that hold in excess of 10 bullets. In fact, eight states have already banned these types of clips. After hearing this, do you support a law to limit ammunition clips on guns to 10 bullets


Seems like a pretty straight forward statement of facts followed by a straight forward question to me.

They do if they're hunting people.
