77% of republicans view owning a gun as morally acceptable, while only 43% are in favor of the legalization of online gambling. This is one of many findings in a new survey that was created to map the attitude towards online gambling in the US. The survey was conducted by Bettingscanner.com.

Bettingscanner.com, a website that compares and reviews sportsbooks for Americans, have published the results of their latest poll, designed to measure how American’s view online gambling compared to other habits. Here are some of the key takeaways:

Despite an image problem, most American’s are in favour of the legalization of online gambling

Only 4 out 10 Americans consider gambling online as morally acceptable despite the fact that the federal ban on gambling was lifted in 2018. Americans can currently gamble online in a number of states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Indiana. Despite its current image amongst the population, only 14% of Americans would completely disagree with the legalization of online gambling.
Four in ten Americans view the use of single-use plastics as morally acceptable

In recent years there has been a huge push in the US to reduce the amount of single-use plastics. However the results show there is a clear political divide when it comes to this topic, with 51% of Republican respondents viewing it as morally acceptable compared to 39% of Democrats.
Democrats view smoking marijuana as more acceptable than Republicans

According to the survey 46% of Americans view smoking marijuana as not morally acceptable, despite the drug being legal in 11 states. The result gets more interesting once you break it down along political lines, with only a third of Republicans viewing the use of the drug as morally acceptable compared to 54% of Democrats.
The majority of Americans view owning a gun as morally acceptable

The issue of gun crime in the US, is a hotly debated topic, but results show that the majority of Americans do not view owning a gun as morally unacceptable.

It’s here we see the biggest split between the two major political parties; with 77% of Republicans having no moral objective to owning a gun, compared to 45% of Democrats.
