Contributing sentiments towards policy:

64% : The forthcoming fee for gun ownership in the city has not yet been determined, but officials said that anyone found to be in noncompliance will have their weapons confiscated.
63% : And of course, the law will do nothing to stop illegal gun ownership or the gun crimes that are costing the city so much money to begin with.
59% : " When we're adults, collective punishment is not only offensive, but it also almost certainly violates the Due Process clause in the Fifth Amendment.
54% : San Jose, California, the hard-left capital of Silicon Valley, thinks it's come up with a clever way to bypass the Second Amendment: The city council passed an ordinance imposing a tax on law-abiding gun owners that forces them to compensate San Jose for the costs it incurs dealing with gun crime.
52% : The Second Amendment says Americans have an inherent right to bear arms because each of us is an integral part of a citizen's militia that can be called up to defend against enemies both foreign and domestic.
39% : Just remember: Gun laws do nothing to keep criminals from guns.
