I'd rather have the opinion of someone who actually knows what he is taking about.

Americans of both parties overwhelmingly support expanded background checks for gun buyers, according to Post-ABC News poll


The Washington Post-ABC News poll also found strong support across party and demographic lines for allowing law enforcement to temporarily seize weapons from troubled individuals, commonly known as ��red-flag�� laws.
With Congress back on Monday and President Trump facing pressure to act, the poll found more Americans saying they trust congressional Democrats over the president to handle the nation��s gun laws, 51 percent to 36 percent, with independents siding with Democrats by a 17-point margin.

But will that influence anything in Washington?? Nope, Niet, Non. It might on a State level. It IS actually common sense......and not exactly the theory of complicated physics.

You know no one will take that poll seriously from 2 Dem. controlled news outlets, with this statement alone one can tell it was an urban poll

Although the poll finds a continued partisan divide on more far-reaching gun-control proposals, public opinion is firmly behind Democrats’ push for action as Congress returned to Washington on Monday. More Americans say they trust congressional Democrats over Trump to handle the nation’s gun laws, 51 percent to 36 percent, with independents siding with Democrats by a 17-point margin — a divide that could have political ramifications for the 2020 presidential and congressional elections.

This was reported by many outlets which makes it believable

The Post-ABC poll finds 86 percent of Americans support implementing “red flag” provisions allowing guns to be taken from people judged to be a danger to themselves or others. And 89 percent support expanding federal background checks to cover private sales and gun-show transactions. Both measures are supported by at least 8 in 10 Republicans, white evangelical Christians, members of gun-owning households and other traditionally conservative groups.

But then they jump back to this which makes it a lot less believable again, Dem. talking points, opens up questioning on who was polled?

More far-reaching restrictions also have majority support, the survey finds, albeit by more-modest margins. Six in 10 support a nationwide ban on gun magazines holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition.
A 56 percent majority supports a nationwide ban on sales of assault weapons, and nearly all who support such a ban also back a mandatory federal buyback program for those weapons — a notion that gun rights advocates have decried as government confiscation and that has been at the fringes of the national gun debate until recently.
