Agree

No

Slightly agree

No, but increase penalties for gun-related crimes

No, and the government should pass a national “stand your ground” law

Slightly agree

No, and the government should pass a national “stand your ground” law

Neutral

No, only for assault weapons

Neutral

No, only for criminals and the mentally ill

Disagree

Yes, but only by closing the gun show loophole

Disagree

Yes, require strict background checks, psychological testing, and training

Consumerism generally favors fewer restrictions to promote consumption. Therefore, it would likely disagree with strict regulations like background checks, psychological testing, and training, as these could hinder the purchasing process.

Disagree

Yes

Consumerism as an ideology focuses on the consumption of goods and services and the promotion of consumer rights, rather than on regulating specific products like guns. Therefore, it might not strongly support or oppose restrictions on gun purchases, focusing instead on the broader aspects of consumer choice and market freedom.

Strongly disagree

Yes, require strict background checks, psychological testing, and training

Requiring strict background checks, psychological testing, and training imposes significant restrictions on the purchasing process, which could be seen as antithetical to the consumerist ideology that values minimal restrictions for consumers. This would likely be viewed as a significant limitation on consumer freedom.
