Voters Believe Armed Citizens Offer Best Protection Against Mass Shootings

July 18, 2022 • by Convention of States Action
Majority Lack Confidence in Local Police or Federal Authorities to Stop Mass Shootings Before They Start 

(Austin, TX—July 18, 2022) Convention of States Action, in partnership with The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018, 2020, and 2021—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted July 7th through July 10th of over 1,000 likely 2022 election voters.

 

“Americans watched in horror as an active shooter was permitted to rampage through a school while the police stood outside and did absolutely nothing. Over and over again, citizens are given the clear message that—when it comes to protecting loved ones—you’re on your own. At the same time, we’re told guns are the problem and we should give up our right to self-defense,” said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States Action. “Voters are not stupid. They understand that responsible citizens offer the best means of protecting our schools, homes, and communities in this country. Pursuing such policies is not only bad politics, it puts all of us at risk.”

    They give me $85 an hour to finish work on an Apple laptop. I certainly didn’t think it was possible, but my trusted friend made $26,000 in just four weeks working on this simple opportunity (lsh-13) and she influenced me to give it a try. Discover more instructions by

    The point that needs to be put in the public’s eye, is the fact that these schools are gun free zones. Gun free zones are a Democratic invention. Democrats are responsible for every drop of blood shed in school shootings.
