Interesting Rasmussen Reports survey...

Advertisements [?]

Seventy-one percent (71%) of Americans believe it is at least somewhat likely that President Obama will seek tougher gun control laws, including 43% who say it is very likely.

***snip***

While 47% see no need for new gun control laws, 43% of adults nationwide say America does need more legal restrictions. This marks a slight drop-off in support for more gun control from surveys in October and June.

The new findings come amid news reports that gun sales are up, primarily because of fears that stricter regulations may be coming.
