Here is what I emailed Fox 4:
Your Poll was worded very poorly! It appeared against CHL holders since your station also implied illegal gun possession as well.

"Should people be restricted from carrying guns at the
State Fair, even with a concealed handgun license? "
Yes
No�

I request you re- post the poll again with the question:
“Should people with a concealed handgun license be restricted from carrying guns at the
State Fair?
Yes
No�

Is it not obvious that no one wants unlicensed criminals carrying firearms at the State Fair? Why don’t you mention the results of the poll on the air? Because of the way your station worded the question and the fact it still showed 80% in favor despite the poor wording?

On Fox 4's "Tell it to Tim" weekly viewer response spot this morning...

"I was looking forward to taking my grand kids to the Fair for the first time this year...since seeing the news about concealed handguns...I have decided not to go."

A lot of criminals probably made the same choice.
