Gun Control Reform Activism

Do you believe this?:

Proponents of stricter gun laws are counting on public opinion -- which, right now, largely favors expanded background checks for gun sales {@ approx 90% as we all know} -- to persist, and allow them to inflict some political damage on those senators who blocked the legislation.
To that end, a new Pew Research Center/Washington Post poll found that 47% of Americans were either "disappointed" or "angry" at last week's Senate vote; 39% said they were "relieved" or "very happy" at the largely-GOP push to block the background checks legislation.

This is disgusting yet revealing. Who are the 39%? republicans are the 39%, scattered with republican leaning independents, that's who.
Ask them if they support background checks on potential gunbuyers these repubs favor it about 85%, but phrase it as a political survey with the GOP position to block bg checks, then suddenly a third of them about face & oppose the VERY SAME POSITION THEY SUPPORTED WHEN UNPOLITICAL.
