Nanny Bloomberg’s Gun Control In Action: 26 Shootings, 6 Dead In NYC Over Two Days

Obama losing support with voters over his gun control proposals

by Jack Butler

President Obama is continuing to lose support among the American voters over his gun control proposals, according to a new study by Rasmussen Reports.

According to the study, which was released Tuesday, 46 percent of likely voters consider the president's handling of issues related to gun control to be poor – the highest it's been since Rasmussen began asking the question back in January. Only 37 percent of voters say that his handling of gun control policies have been excellent or good.

In addition, 53 percent of men and 54 percent of voters who consider themselves not to be Republicans or Democrats believe that the president is poorly handling issues related to gun control.

This represents a near-flip of the results from Rasmussen's earlier studies on the subject, in which 45 percent of likely voters ranked the president's handling of gun control issues as good or excellent as late as April.

While public sentiment for gun control legislation grew in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, it has slowly decreased and become a lesser priority for most Americans. The Senate failed to pass its gun control bill back in April, despite attempts to win over Republicans by removing an amendment to ban assault weaponsproposed by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.).

The president has also lost support on his gun control legislation among Millennials. A study conducted by the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in April found that 56 percent of young Americans disapprove of the president's handling of gun violence.

Several states have been successful at passing gun control laws, however, includingConnecticut, Colorado, Maryland and New York.

Superbowl anti-gun ad, hope it backfires on them

PAT DOLLARD YOUNG AMERICANS 11 Hours Ago Bloomberg to Air Gun Control Ad During Superbowl Feb 2, 2013Toro520 Via The Associated Press: NEW YORK (Associated Press) – A gun control group founded by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is airing a Super Bowl advertisement calling for background checks. The 30-second spot by Mayors Against Illegal Guns will air in the Washington area during the game between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers. The ad calls on lawmakers to pass rules requiring background checks on guns. It is narrated by children, with “America the Beautiful” playing in the background. It includes decades-old footage of National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre saying the gun lobby group approves of the checks. LaPierre recently testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that the NRA no longer supports background checks for all gun sales. A Bloomsberg spokesman would say only that the ad cost in the six-figure range....
