Facebook poll

I was perusing a friend's Facebook profile and I noticed she voted in this poll. She even voted correctly, which kind of surprised me a bit.



Interesting skew. And look at the total votes. Not what I would have expected from the Facebook crowd.

I, personally, don't really vote in the polls on facebook. But, I do have friends on there who do. You'd be surprised at the number polls that end up being just like that one.

I see all kinds of gun related ads on Facebook. I have even voted on a few of their polls. Have not seen this one yet though.

Have not seen that poll on facebook, however, I don't know why you would be surprised at the results.

The vast majority of this country whether they own a gun or not, do believe in the right to own a gun.

They out number the anti-gunners by an overwhelming majority.

So it doesn't matter, where the poll is taken, the results are going to show a belief that most people believe in the right to own a gun is grounded in the Constitution.

Don't worry about the Facebook crowd; there are plenty of us Evil mean-spirited conservative tea-bagging gun owners there......

Heck, I even have my shooting videos and pics posted there too......

With a profile photo like that, is there much doubt as to my position on the RKBA??

the most likely reason you see a lot of gun related ads is you have guns, shooting, hunting ect.. listed in your interest box. the adds are personalized.

How come there was no poll result for seeing either a rabbit or a duck?
