I like the way I put it, but thank you very much for your more than considerate suggestion.

Washington Post poll finds support for stricter gun control laws in Maryland - The Washington Post

Maryland residents overwhelmingly support Gov. Martin O’Malley’s plan to force gun buyers to submit to fingerprinting, safety training and more background checks, according to a new Washington Post poll.

Across the state, fully 85 percent back the governor’s licensing plan and 73 percent do so “strongly.” They also support banning high-capacity ammunition clips and assault weapons — two other portions of O’Malley’s (D) bill, which in the wake of the December school shooting in Newtown, Conn., would give Maryland among the nation’s strictest gun-control laws.

This should read, of the 1500 out of 6 million people polled 85% back o'malley. Pretty small polling to be making such a bold statement, but what else do you expect.

10% figure is too high. There are 6 million people in Maryland

I absolutely believe that a large percentage of Marylanders are in favor of gun bans. But, like Tox said, it doesn't meant they're right.

Actually, if you conduct the poll, unbiased with a 'real' representative portion of the population, then "No" they don't overwhelmingly support more gun control.
See the link below for an actual poll conducted in Maryland that is more representative, but that the local media will never reference because it doesn't reflect their agenda.

85%, yet only 21 people have signed up to testify for the bill today.

Oh, and here is what their "rally" looked like....

Typical right-winger tea-party manipulation.


Of COURSE it's going to look like a lame-ass rally when you take the photo from that angle.

The crowd of thousands was clearly behind the spinning, lying, cheating photographer.

Silly me, they were at the other lawyers mall.
