Time to Put the Gun Issue to Rest?

The Supreme Court on Monday extended the federally protected right to keep and bear arms to all 50 states, effectively invalidating Chicago's handgun ban. It's just the latest in a long line of challenges to America's right to bear arms. Is it time to put the issue to rest?

No -- Americans still have the right to decide what's best for their city or state. The court overstepped its bounds. 2% (1,145 votes)

Undecided -- I understand that cities like Chicago want to reduce gun crimes, but what about protecting yourself? 1% (461 votes)

Yes -- The right to bear arms applies to all Americans, and does not arbitrarily stop at municipal or state lines. 97% (49,808 votes)

Other (post a comment) <1% (167 votes)

Lets all hope that the 3% (yes and undecided) is within the margin of error for people hitting the wrong button

There is a great wailing and gnashing of teeth over at Daily Kos right now. I think one person even had kittens over this.

Well, consider the problems the Florida voters had punching out that little chad and you can see 3% is well within that margin of error!
