If you’re old enough to be drafted and handed an M16 in combat you should be old enough to purchase a firearm.

@eddieg I agree that the 2016 election was bullshit nobody wants socialist sanders, or Crooked killery, but you dont need to allow yourself to be fooled. Trump is a liberal. He has always been a liberal. He is attacking our second amendment right now. The idiots on the left just are too stupid to see it and are in effect arguing against their own agendas. Trump is shit too.

How is someone in the age of majority gonna be allowed to vote, smoke cigarettes, make pornography, buy lottery tickets. Sign up for the military (or selective service for that matter,) and get shipped off to war, but you don’t want to give that same person their second amendment right until they turn 21?

Bill, take a chill pill. When we have the choice between a criminal named Hillary, a Socialist Bernie Sanders or Trump, I will go with Trump every time. I will NEVER vote for a socialist/communist (DEMOCRAT) as long as I am able to make it to the voting booth.
Bill - 6 years ago
Trump has fooled you all. He should be the new liberal hero. He will pass gun reform

God damn Trump is a traitor. He supports and endorses the age increase on weapons. Complete bullshit. Remember this republicans. He is a wolf in sheeps clothing. Beware!

Don't be surprised if your local ABC affiliate doesn't doctor the poll results. ABC is nothing but a bunch of liars.

As others have already said, if you plan to restrict gun ownership to those 21 years of age or older, you must logically restrict voting, and service in the armed service, as well as jury membership, and operating motor vehicles. There were approximately 33,000 motor vehicle deaths in the U.S.A every year for the past 5 years. Save the children, ban motor vehicles. If you were to restrict voting to 21 and over, the Dems would throw a fit. Much of their votes come from the ignorant, irrational, deceivable youth and from the recently deceased.

Would the minimum age for military service will also be increased to 21?
I enlisted in the Army at age 17 and was an E-2 in the 101st with AA wings before I turned 18. I may have not been able to grow a beard at the time, but I was more mature than your average 30 year-old liberal is today.
Preserving Liberty has a cost. Our founders knew it. Some of you should try traveling the world and see what life is like with a boot on your throat. Perhaps then you will see the pathetic irony of begging the government to make the citizenry powerless against tyranny.

DaProf - 6 years ago
Well, only if we move the age of Majority to 21 for voting, serving in the Armed forces, entering into binding contracts, buying cigarettes, etc..
Otherwise, no.
The evil actions of one or even a few does not diminish the Rights of the millions of others. There were millions of people who turned 18 over the years and we had no issue with them.
Quit punishing the millions of decent citizens for the actions of one or two evil miscreants. That needs to stop.
The data is pretty clear. Why is it so hard for some people to understand? Is it just willful ignorance or a self-inflicted blindness?
Daryl Noonan - 6 years ago
So are they going to raise the minimum age for Military service to 21? Old enough to carry a belt fed machine gun for your country, and potentially die but can't buy a rifle.
We definitely need to change the voting age too. You can't be trusted to buy a rifle, but hey we will let you vote which has more far reaching implications.
And finally we need to change the Legal age for abortion. You can't be trusted to be responsible buying a rifle, but we will trust you to make life and death decisions for an unborn child.

Gotta love the way these communist-type news sites word their questions. They call it an "ASSSAULT TYPE" weapon. It is either an Assault weapon or it Is not an Assault weapon. There is no such thing as an "Assault Type' weapon. Good grief can it be any more obvious what the goal is with these loaded questions and innuendo coming from these news stations.
ArmedGuardsInSchools - 6 years ago
These polls are a perfect example of how the left wing media drives the conversation in this country. Instead of talking about fences around the schools, armed guards in the schools, ways to make the schools more secure, we are talking about guns again. This is about protecting our children in the schools, it is not about what a gun looks like, mental illness, what the killer is thinking, IT IS ABOUT HOW TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN and stop these murders.
WKRN STAFF how about a poll on whether we should have armed guards in our school? How about a conversation whether the guards should be trained teachers, military vets, retired police officers or the National Guard. Ain't gonna happen is it WKRN? You have to push your socialist/communist anti-gun agenda at all costs and the children be damned.

Remind me again, how old was the vegas shooter, the theater shooter in colorado, or the shooter at the elementary school?
If 18 makes an adult, and they have rights to vote, enlist in the military etc. then an 18 year old has the right to own a gun and drink a beer.
Joan E.Jones - 6 years ago
Please tell our viewers, assult rifles should be taken off the market. Send them to our solder boys & women in our defense of our country! No human needs a gun like this to protect themselves. therefore this will not harm our rights to own a gun for self-defense. ( Not a Asault Rifle, remove them from sales in all gun shops & gun shows!!)

Too many dumbfuggs are too intellectually immature to make intellegent voting decisions.
By the way, they so called youth advocates going to Tallahassee and DC??? These are the same idiots that eat Tide pods. I'm having a hard time with the credibility of anything they speak.
One more thing....kiddies...."oh if it only saves one more life, new gun control measures"
What about saving 900,000 lives of unborn babies every year?
Hypocrisy at its finest.
ProtectTheChildren - 6 years ago
Why is WKRN, an ABC affiliate, doing all these polls on guns? Because of the school shooting in Florida and the murder of innocent school children. Instead of focusing on ways to stop these shootings the media immediately focuses on the gun. This is the socialist/communist (democrat) agenda. They couldn't care less about the children, this is a crisis that will not go to waste. To hell with protecting the children, we will use this tragedy to get more gun laws. It is absolutely sickening to watch the propaganda of our national media while the schools continues to be war zones. Who is protecting our children while the attend their schools should be the question.
Where are the polls and articles on how to protect our children. I am sick of this left wing garbage being spewed by WKRN.
