And by their own admission:

International experience

Jurisdictions differ in their approaches to controlling handguns and assault weapons. For example, Australia and the UK have both enacted bans that limit or prohibit handguns. Federally, the US enacted a federal ban on assault weapons, but this ban expired in 2004 and no federal legislation to renew or replace the ban has since been enacted. In all cases the data does not conclusively demonstrate that these handgun or assault weapon bans have led to reductions in gun violence, though some studies drew other conclusions. The variation in study results reflects the fact that patterns of gun violence are influenced by many factors and the impact cannot be attributed to one factor.

sooooo you can submit multiple forms guys. There is no limit. Just FYI.

DO NOT DO THAT! NO! ABSOLUTELY DO NOT DO THAT.

Even non-competent webmaster will be able to tell the cheating. As a matter of fact, they probably track where you visit before heading over to the questionnaire.
