Thanks Republicans!
Son, I am disappoint -About a quarter of young Republicans in one poll said they strongly or somewhat supported an assault weapons ban. Harvard Youth Pole -Half of young Americans (50%) support implementing law enforcement policies similar to England, where firearms are not provided to regular police officers, just those with special training. University of Texas/Texas Politics Project Poll - Raising the age limit on gun purchases was supported by 91% of Democrats, and a smaller, but still majority, share of Republicans, 64%. Similarly, 64% of Republicans and 88% of Democrats supported the concept of a red flag law.  Other people's children - JFC.

I would take this poll with a huge grain of salt. Once you start looking at these types of articles with the idea that they are probably propaganda pieces things make more sense. I don't think most American's want to give up their ability to defend themselves.

Support for guns was one of the main reasons I considered myself Republican-leaning. I think that the booming support for Trump and his conspiracy theories have a lot more to do with turning off younger voters than firearms.

Gun sales numbers and CCW permits being issued and the number of states implementing constitutional carry in just the last 5 years (25 total states now or HALF of the union...) all seem to be saying otherwise. |

Unless you routinely PT and train with a fireteam element or larger, teaching basic infantry skills to newbies you can shitcan the act that you're helping to do anything clutching your illegal sbr in your basement. Go network. Go train. Get in shape. Have weapons and gear to outfit a small group, and the knowledge base to train them. Your local cell should be able to act as an ODA to stand up a guerilla force at a moments notice. If you aren't doing that, at a bare minimum, you're going to be why we lose. |

Can confirm this is not true for any of the 10+ millennial Republicans I know (in addition to a few Boomer, Millennial, and Gen Z Democrats). Also wouldn't surprise me if most of the people polled want laws that already exist in some form (ie. closing the "gun show loophole", which I hear about in PA when we already have UBCs for pistols) or think "assault weapon" = machine gun and not a 10/22 or threaded Glock.
Then again, these "polls" tell us people overwhelmingly support a lot of stuff that turns out to be false pretty frequently, so I'm not surprised. |

It’s a common tactic of the left to pretend to care about Republicans’ success. “If only the GOP would adopt our position on ‘X’ they’d have more support from *fill in the blank.*”
Yeah, thanks, guy. |

 My sons and their buddies are all gun owners under 21. They shoot regularly. Gun sales have been off the charts the past several years. Obama and Biden have been the biggest gun marketers in history. Idonblevit.jpg |

This millennial is turned off by Republicans' weak support for gun rights. Same goes for all my millennial friends. Of course, there is some selection bias there.
