"However, the issue is no more how gun-control legislation will curb gun violence. The real concerns are whether the American legislative system is too crippled to take an action and whether vested interests of powerful lobbies can indefinitely hold hostage the legitimate expectations of the American people."

When I accessed the article for its web address, I noticed at the top an ad:
"Gun control? Vote Here Now!"
I decided to at least check the ad out. It is provided by Newsmax. The title is "Gun Control Laws from Obama? Vote Now in Urgent Poll." The questions are rather balanced, although the one on the Second Amendment uses wording not in the Second Amendment. Newsmax says it shares its results with a list of major news outlets.
To have your responses counted, you must provide your email address and ZIP Code. I really don't care for polls, requiring my email address made not taking the poll even easier.
I wonder if a similar ad was posted by Google AdSense on this entry.
