New Poll Shows Americans Want Gun Control

Wednesday, January 16th, 2013 -- 8:24 AM

-As President Barack Obama gets ready to spell out White House proposals to curb gun violence, three new national polls indicate a majority of Americans support most gun control measures.

But they are divided by political party, gender, age, race and education over some of the proposals.

The polls released this week came one month after a gunman killed 26 people, including 20 children, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

The tragedy seemed to be make an impact.

By a 51%-45% margin, Americans questioned in a new Pew Research Center poll say it's more important to control gun ownership than to protect gun rights.

But, of course, the country is still divided on the issue.
