Quote:

This poll is a false dilemma (also called false dichotomy, the either-or fallacy, or bifurcation fallacy).

You are forcing people to say they agree or disagree with the decision "as a whole."

I am forced to vote "yes" I agree, because to do otherwise would suggest that I disagreed with the Court on the the issue of The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a
firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for
traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense."

You do not even consider that one might disagree with the decision as being far too narrow.

Was that intentional, skewing the news to your point-of-view? Or just poor logic?
