Opposition to AW bans at all-time high
CBS reports that self-reported gun ownership and opposition to "assault weapon" bans are both at an all-time high.
I'm convinced there is some manner of cultural shift here, as the US returns to its long term norm of being a nation of gunnies. It's something that need not have a single cause, or multiple causes. It simply is. And, as CBS notes, homicides fell by half (which means the rate fell by more than half) over the same time.

Do you think this might be because it's been tried and failed miserably here in the US? In fact, it's failed everywhere it's been tried.

Its probably higher than the poll suggests. Many gun owners are not going to tell a complete stranger over the phone whether or not they own guns.
