Gallup Poll Shows "Record-Low Support for Stricter Gun Laws"

Gallup notes:

"Compared with views in 2000, each major demographic or attitudinal subgroup has shown a shift toward a more pro-gun stance on the question about whether gun laws should be more strict or less strict."

There survey indicates that gun ownership rose slightly in late 2007 (when it reached a peak of 44 percent) and then has fallen slightly to 42 percent in 2009. The percent of households that own a gun has been at about 30 percent since the end of 2005.
