FireMission: Firearm Carry Poll
What do you expect voting on a MSNBC poll will accomplish? Also, pretty sure this has been around for like 10 years now. It pops up now and then.

Still at 46% NO. With 1502k YES votes cast and 1745k NO votes, 33k votes for only self defense.

Voted and forwarded link to everyone (almost) on my email list. Over 3 million votes. It's going to take more than a few unanswered clicks to change the results.

Still 46%. My first thought was it was going to be massively skewed against CC considering the source, but clearly it’s just fixed.

You realize the only reason these guys do these absurd random polls is to increase the traffic to their website right?

Nobody on either side believes the results. They love it when groups go head-to-toe telling everyone, everywhere to "go hit this poll."

When dozens of pro-2A websites and dozens of anti-2A websites start promoting this poll they love it since the page has gone "viral."

Evil exists. You can not negotiate with, bribe or placate evil. You're not going to be able to have it sit down with Dr. Phil for an anger management session either.

It's been stuck on 46% ever since I voted last night. It's still there over twelve hours later. Seems somewhat suspicious that it hasn't moved in either direction in all this time.

It's over three million votes, yours and all of our votes will not change it one bit. You would need 3,000 votes just to move it .1%

I think perhaps you didn't read my comments closely. Of course I did not expect a handful of votes from here to make a difference. But it hasn't changed, either way, in over twelve hours. Then again: I didn't note the number of votes at that time. Perhaps we were late to the game.

Specious poll, splitting the "yes" votes into "Yes" and "only for self defense".

Why the hell else would you carry (assuming non-LEO...)? To impress Jodi Foster?
