It’s really got to suck to be a progressive liberal these days. Their ‘peaceful protests’ are being exposing as nothing more than a bunch of spoiled little 20 year olds, looting stores, setting businesses on fire, and blocking traffic. Now, more bad news for them. For the first time in over 20 years, Americans support gun rights over gun control.
More matter how much th eleft wing corrupt media wants to use things like the Sandy Hook shooting to push their anti-gun agenda, it just isn’t working anymore. It’s really got to suck for Piers Morgan too. Not only did CNN dump his ass, but this whole gun control arguement was the entire basis of his show. DOesn’t looking like anyone will be running to hire him anytime soon for TV.

| Americans support gun rights more than gun control – first time in over 20 years |
|---|
For the first time in more than two decades of Pew Research Center surveys, there is more support for gun rights than gun control. Currently, 52% say it is more important to protect the right of Americans to own guns, while 46% say it is more important to control gun ownership.
Support for gun rights has edged up from earlier this year, and marks a substantial shift in attitudes since shortly after the Newtown school shootings, which occurred two years ago this Sunday.
The balance of opinion favored gun control in the immediate aftermath of the Newtown tragedy in December 2012, and again a month later. Since January 2013, support for gun rights has increased seven percentage points – from 45% to 52% — while the share prioritizing gun control has fallen five points (from 51% to 46%).
