  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
A new Reuters/Ipsos poll found that the concerted effort of gun control activists, headed up by Parkland student activists, has created "little lasting impact" on public perception of gun laws.

Three months after the horrific mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that left 17 people dead, Americans' perspective on gun control has "faded" back to pre-Parkland levels, Reuters reports.

"The poll found that 69 percent of American adults supported strong or moderate regulations or restrictions for firearms, down from 75 percent in late March, when the first poll was conducted following the Valentine’s Day shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland," Reuters reports. "The new poll numbers are virtually unchanged from pre-Parkland levels."

Once again showing how out of touch the rats are from the public.  Just let them keep on hitching their election wagons to the Gun control and illegal immigration train and ride it right thu the midterms to victory..
