Polls Show Electorate’s Interest in Gun Control Waning [More]
What a bunch of wishful thinking happy talk. The perception of importance will change with the next high profile shooting and resulting media emphasis based on who the shooter is.
The question to ask is “How many support gun control and how many oppose it?”
Another good question would be “How many have any idea what the current gun control laws are in their location, their state, and federally?”
The electorate as a whole may be losing interest in “gun control,” but I suspect it’s more because they’re currently more worried about the economy, inflation, prices, and making their rent/mortgage payments than that it’s a declining or forgotten issue. “Gun control” has long been an cause for easy, secure times, when the Demanding Mommies don’t have anything more demanding going on.
Let the economy recover, and then we’ll see just how much “waning” it did.
