And yet a recent poll from the state of Missouri (where they're about to pass a bunch of bills lowering the age, not requiring a license or registration, open carry without a permit, etc), 66% of Missourians support stronger gun laws such as background checks, red flag laws to protect victims of domestic violence, requiring permits and no assault rifles until you're 21.
