Why?
I generally base my opinion of poll reulst on whgat the poll actually shows. So if the poll shows that only a minority support repealing the 2nd ammendment then how you spin that to conclude what the other 60% think.
What about the ones who specifiaclly oppose repealing the 2nd amendment? What conclusion can you draw about their position on other gun control issues.
Seems like you are just using a minority to crate an imaginary majority.

You think a poll that found 40% of white people wanted all non-whites to be expelled from the country would be met with the same claim from you that only a minority of white people support such an extreme move?
Please link me to a thread where it is claimed that ALL white people are white supremists just because of the actions of a minority of white people.
Even if a poll showed 40% of white people wanted all non-whites expelled i would not try to argue that ALL white people support such extreme measures.
The fact is that you posted information that proves you are wrong. A high percentage of "the left" support more gun regulation, but only a minority support repealling the 2nd amendment. Therefore your argument that "Any gun regulation will lead to repeal of the 2nd amendment" is proven false by the info you posted yourself.
