Gallup boss: More Americans oppose gun control than ever

Talk about welcome news.

"every bit of data is showing us that Americans are getting more conservative about gun control." Frank Newport, editor in chief Gallop Poll.

Even lefty polls from CNN and NBC backs this up.

A CNN poll conducted in April found that 39 percent of Americans wanted stricter gun control laws, down from 50 percent in 2000. Another 46 percent said the gun laws should stay as they are, while 15 percent said they should be loosened--up from 9 percent in 2000.

An Apr. 23-26 poll by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal found that support for curbing the sale of assault weapons and semiautomatic rifles has dropped from 75 percent in 1991 to 53 percent today.

Despite these very positive statistics, I expect Obama and the Democrats will still push for stricter gun laws that in the end only curtails our freedoms, rather than make us safer.
