You Won’t Believe How Many Americans Want Gun Owners And Christians To Register With The Government

Significant numbers of Americans want citizens to register with the government for such factors as gun ownership and faith, a new poll from YouGov indicates.

The polling service asked 1,000 adults whether they believed various groups should have to register.

The question was phrased simply: “Would you support or oppose a national registry which requires the following groups of people to register with the government and provide their home address?”

Highlights of the disturbing survey include:

• More than half of Americans, 53 percent, want a national registry of gun owners. That includes 68 percent of Democrats and 37 percent of Republicans.
• 21 percent of Americans support the idea of registering Christians. Breaking it down by parties, 27 percent of Democrats and 21 percent of Republicans back such an idea.
• 19 percent of Americans want Jews to register. That includes 27 percent of Democrats and 18 percent of Republicans.
• 40 percent of Americans support the idea of a national registry for Muslims. The party breakdown: 41 percent of Democrats and 49 percent of Republicans.

YouGov did not ask Americans whether atheists and other non-believers should be registered. The survey was conducted Nov. 20-23.
