GUN CONTROL...It only works out well for those that control the guns.

December 29, 2013 marks the 123nd Anniversary of the murder of 150 Sioux Indians at Wounded Knee Creek on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. These 150 people, in their winter camp, were murdered by federal agents and members of the 7th Cavalry who had come to confiscate their firearms “for their own safety and protection”. The slaughter began after the majority of the Sioux had peacefully turned in their firearms.

U.S. Still Divided On Passing Stricter Gun Control Laws

October 25, 2013 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.

PRINCETON, N.J. (UPI) — Public support of stricter gun control laws has dropped by nine percent since the school shootings in Newtown, Conn., last year, a Gallup poll found.

The poll, released Friday, found that 49 percent of respondents said they are in favor of more strict gun control laws, down from 58 percent following the December 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in which 20 children and six educators were killed, Gallup reported.

Meanwhile, 37 percent of respondents said gun laws should be kept the same and 13 percent said they should be less strict.

A majority of respondents — 74 percent — said they were against banning handgun ownership in the United States.

Twenty-five percent said they think a law should be passed to only permit police and other authorized persons to carry handguns.

Gallup questioned 1,028 adults nationwide between Oct. 3 and 6. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points.
