Online poll: Do you support tighter control on ammunition purchases?

http://entertainment.verizon.com/news/

Currently the good guys are winning, but only barely. Given the over all political situation it is important to blow these polls out of the water. Please take a second of your time and vote.

We are winning by 1500 votes. It's like 5720 to 4277

Aguila Blanca,

Did you get all of the asterisks? That might be the issue.

I voted, no, of course. I hardly ever buy alot of ammo at once (lack of money) but if I get the chance to I do. Right now I'm at a box every few weeks.

My buddy just bought 280 rounds of 7.62x39, to us that's alot but to some people on this site that's nothing. And I support the right to buy and own as many bullets one wants. This is the USA, we should be able to buy or make as much as we want.

Hmmm, how dependable could the results be outside of our own entertainment and glee?

Looks like it lets you vote at least once a day

Don't think so, new one is about concern over rising food prices in drought.

I think it's safe to say we "won" though
