But Harry, if your state has tougher gun laws than Virginia, then why does your state have double the murder rate per capita than Virginia ? http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/murd...-state#MRalpha


You know, Tim, you presented a good source of data. Maryland's murder rate, 6.3 per 100K, isn't
quite double Virginia's 3.8, but darn close.

What makes Krause's comment even more ludicrous is a comparison of Maryland's rate to the top ten
lax gun control states, to wit: Alaska, Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, Montana, New Mexico,
Texas, Utah and Wyoming. None of those states approach Maryland, land of liberal inspired gun laws,
in their murder rates. http://weapons.about.com/od/gunlaws/...dly-states.htm

I wonder why? Hell, even Illinois, land of the most beloved of liberal gun control laws, has a
higher murder rate than that unconscionably lax Virginia.

Kinda makes you wonder if the **** being spewed is, well, ****.
