Can we have it both ways?

As though more laws/restrictions would work.

Also, nearly all Americans -- now 92%, up from 83% in 1999 -- favor laws that require people attempting to purchase guns at gun shows, including gun dealers, to undergo background checks.

This demonstrates extraordinary ignorance and it's inclusion in the poll indicates the Gallup question writers are very ignorant of existing laws.
Buying from dealers at gun shows already requires a 4473 and background check. What they probably are trying to address is private sales/transfers at gun shows which are a matter state law. Most states do not require private parties to transfer through a FFL/dealer.
To ban private sales at gun shows would only move those sales to the parking lot next door.
The question is based on a false premise.
