----- Opposing Views: Got a Gender Gap Problem? Push for Gun Restrictions
"Recent stories and surveys have highlighted the apparent narrowing of the gender gap, which used to give Democratic candidates a significant percentage of the votes from women."
I do find this slightly funny, being how the dems were against women having the right to vote.
"Women voters desires for tighter restrictions dont stop there. Seventy three percent of women (and 63 percent of men) supported registration and licensing of gun owners. Seventy percent of women (60 percent of men) supported restrictions on military-style assault weapons). Sixty seven percent of women (63 percent of men) supported a waiting period of five days for handgun sales. And, 60 percent of women (46 percent of men) supported limiting the number of guns that can be bought at one time."
I don't buy their numbers.
"According to Lake Research Partners, the gender gap on whether allowing guns to be openly carried in public makes people feel more or less safe is one of the largest divides seen on current issues.
And I believe it's more to do with money and our economy.
I have heard very little about guns this year, I have heard a lot about jobs and making it through the year with out foreclosure and bankruptcy.
