Online poll (Delaware) - guns on campus

[radnor]

Would you guys (and gals) help us out please? A local (Delaware) radio station has a poll up about guns on campus. Would you please express your opinion?

LINK It's on the left side of your screen. I had to scroll down to see it.

THANK YOU for the support!

Close. 53 to 47 percent in favor of allowing students to carry.

[kevindsingleton]

68% to 32%, right now. People seem to want to be able to defend themselves, in spite of what politicians continue to claim.

Must be something to do with that "absolute power corrupts" thing.

With the incidents of campus shooting, at least would-be victime would have a fighting chance.
69.23 %

This is an accident and or lawsuit, waiting to happen.
30.77 %

Why do they have to tip toe around their phrasing...yes or no would suffice...

Because the way you phrase (or "slant") the question can have a large impact on the results of the survey.

Neither option had any definitiveness. Either one can be chosen by a proponent for on-campus carry because there really could be "an accident or lawsuit waiting to happen". That's just reality.

And when you phrase a question in a way that is intended for a 'yes' or 'no' answer, it doesn't make much sense to have anything but 'yes' and 'no' for the options.
