Swalwell's twitter post / poll / question ...
Just serves as an example of
When you ask a question , be prepared to hear a answer that you did not want or expect.
When it comes to the 2nd Amendment it should be simple...
If you don't want to own a gun , then don't...at the same do not make that choice for others.

No gun is included in the Second Amendment. It specifies a restriction on government, not an allowance for citizens. The Second Amendment doesn't "apply" to any guns; it applies to government. The right to bear arms - any arms - is guaranteed by the Second Amendment.

To be fair though - such polls are not scientific - it is just the usual case that more pro-gun people showed up or knew about the poll than anti-gun people, or who cared to vote on it. Maybe it is somewhat representative, maybe not - posting a poll on Twitter is not a good way to truly determine public sentiment.
OTOH - the Second Amendment is about a Natural Right. You can't vote away Natural Rights - only the freedom to exercise them.
