Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : Lewis argued that the Proud Boys were likely to continue to use the weapons in Portland and anywhere where there was a "lax local response" to the group's activities from law enforcement.
48% : But they are not subject to any specific federal or state laws, and nor are they covered by firearms laws.
36% : The tactic gave rally-goers and counter-protesters free rein, while employees of businesses located near the fracas told local media that they felt abandoned by law enforcement.
