Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : Gun rights advocates will fight this one all the way to the bitter end.
54% : Ghost gun dealers would therefore need to obtain licenses, run background checks, use serial numbers, and keep certain records for law enforcement.
54% : Technically, this dispute hinges not on the Constitution, but on statutory text; still, the Second Amendment lurks just underneath the surface of any case about firearms.
47% : O'Connor's decision will remain on ice until the Supreme Court disposes of the case, no matter what monkey business the 5 Circuit pulls next.
45% : Because the weapon has no serial number, though, law enforcement almost certainly can't trace it back to you -- which is the point.
44% : (Roberts, too, appears more dovish on gun rights than his conservative colleagues.)
