53% : "So the idea of these high-caliber weapons is of -- there's simply no rational basis for it in terms of thinking about self-protection, hunting... and remember, the Constitution, the Second Amendment was never absolute.
50% : You couldn't buy a cannon when the Second Amendment was passed.

23% : On Monday, Biden said the assault weapons ban in the 1990s had "significantly cut down mass murders."
