A new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll conducted in the days after the horrific shooting in Uvalde, Texas, shows 67% of Americans strongly or somewhat support banning assault-style weapons like the gun used by accused 18-year-old shooter Salvador Ramos.
The new polling provides a snapshot at this moment in time of where voters stand on a variety of gun reform proposals.
WAAY 31 set up a sign with an open microphone in Big Spring Park on Friday afternoon with the same question: Would you support a ban on assault weapons? After nearly two hours, no one walked up to the mic to weigh in on the controversial topic that's stirring strong emotions on both sides of the debate over gun regulation.
The poll also provides details on how Americans feel about a laundry list of other gun control possible legislation. Read the full results here.
