OK, I'll bite. What's wrong with the poll? Did I omit any options?

I have no idea how it will turn out - which I think is what makes it a good question.

No - I'm not unfair. If Obama tries to make it harder for Americans to exercise their second amendment rights, then I will take him to task.

Obama didn't cause the UK riots either, so I'd say he's in the clear on this one.

Actually, did he make any public statement on the riots? Not that he should have - but I can see why he would avoid it, as it would not reflect well on the liberal position - not necessarily his - of wanting more gun control here.

A couple of Korean shop owners were determined to have no looting in their stores.
