They wouldn't take my "no" vote...  Like I was blocked or something.  Had to go back and try it 3 times before it went through.  At that point, it was 79% against more gun control. 

(I get really dedicated when I have a chance to piss-off the looney left)

I wonder how they will spin that poll  ???

Done.

What we need for the View is some freedom of speech training/licensing.  No one should wield that much power (Ok, maybe not much power but still) without a basic understanding of the constitution.

Done.. Still 79%.. Wonder if it's capped there at 79%.. Wouldn't surprise me..

Think about it - At 18,000 votes it takes 180 no votes without any yes votes to change it one percent.

They are going backwards.......  ;D  ;D  ;D

Something is skewed   (ABC ? Geez, ya think?)

It still has the same number of votes (18,500 or so) as it did when I voted yesterday. Maybe the voting closed or they got pissed and quit counting.  ;D

Post by: Frosty on August 12, 2012, 10:00:09 AM
Done! Don't think the #'s have changed any.
This vote will most likely be similar to the one U.S. news & world report publishes where they keep posting an antigun vote wanting to get the answer they want which hasn't happened yet. They keep trying though.

Post by: Big Frank on August 12, 2012, 03:36:05 PM
I voted for the 7th (?) time. A poll isn't worth much when you can vote multiple times. But it's still 79% no.
Title: Re: Vote 'NO' in this poll...
Post by: Ulmus on August 12, 2012, 04:31:25 PM
They still have it up.  Voted no just to pile on.

To be honest, I'm surprised polls like this still happen.  If anything you'd think they'd limit the time to vote to the show's "air time" to hinder people from doing what we did.

14707 of 18705  Still 79%

Yeah, (that was a brain fart  ;D ) but in a 24 hour period, the total number of votes was still showing the same when I looked.

I guess not a lot of voters, overall ..... up 300 more, to 18,958 total, since I was there two days ago.  ;D

Dude, it's " the View", a gabfest for several old liberal broads,( a has been "comedian" a 60's news reader, and some red headed heifer )
 this is probably the most views their sight has ever had.
Why do you think Liberal talk radio can't stay on the air ?
No one wants to listen to their BS.

Coincidentally, the only woman on the show that doesn't define the word "liberal dog" is, not surprisingly, a Republican!

Elizabeth Hasselbeck...nice looking lady, completely abused over her years on the show from what I understand!  The liberal hacks just can't give her a break....

There are plenty of lefty loons that believe in the 2nd Amendment when it suits their purposes!  Diane Fienstien comes to mind...Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie..  Hollywood has plenty of guns and the money to pay off the boys that hand out the permits!  Same with NYC..

Jolie has made public comments on firearms for self defense.
Basically what she said was that if some one tried to hurt her kids she could, and would, shoot the crap out of them.

Work has twisted your mind.
The DL said if some one tried to harm him and he had a gun he would not hesitate to shoot them.
As a more or less pacifist he sees no contradiction in using force to prevent the wrongful taking of a life.

My mind's been twisted far longer than just the last week Tom!

A pacifist will let someone kill his family, his dog, his cat and himself without lifting a finger.  The DL is not a pacifist by that definition!

I'd bet he'd give Angie a go too!!!

 ;D

I should have said, "Twisted beyond what passes for normal".  ;D
I'm not sure the Lama's are celibate, ( there were at least 2 Lama's in Tibet, the DL was the Spititual leader of the faith, there is another whose title I forget but he is head of the secular Govt. of Tibet and has been under Chinese control since the 50's.) so he might very well be willing to give AJ a poke. (bearing in mind that he's in his 70's ability may be another matter )
Buddhism is essentially a passive religion, that holds even the life of a black fly to be a sacred gift from the creator.
On the other hand, it does recognize the need for defensive violence. Tibet had an army still armed with bows when China first invaded, with training in modern weapons and supplies from the CIA they held of the Chinese for several years and continue to give them fits to this day.
