Most Americans Oppose Re-instituting a National Assault Weapon Ban

Dec 19, 2015 | Featured

New surveys by ABC News/Washington Post and CBS News/New York Times show that the drop in support for a nationwide ban in so-called “assault weapons” mirrors the general decline in support for gun control that has been observed in the last couple of decades (here and here).  The  average of the two surveys weighted by the number of people surveyed shows that 6.9% more people oppose a national ban than support it.  See also here.

    I want to know when we can start working towards repealing those parts of the National Firearms Owner Protection Act that bans for sale new fully automatic rifles? Anyone?
