NE Bull:
The best we could muster is a D  :'( ? Now come on, we can do better than that!
This time next year, I expect us to have pulled out a F!

I mean, lookit- all our neighbors have Fs.  Let take a good look at what they are doing, and buckle down and do better this next year!

AWick:
I remember shortly after Obama was elected in 2008 there was a map of all of the counties of the US that broke them down by income, crime rate, murder rate, etc etc. I think the story would be much more telling if they broke that out for gun laws. I think it would paint the best picture of the ststaus quo. We all know urban areas drive up murder and crime rates and most urban areas, such as Omaha, have regulations above and beyond the state level. If they pealed this to the next level your F areas would have the lowest rates and your A areas would be slaughter houses. Maine, and Vermont would be outliers though...

Here's to flunking next year!!!

NENick:
I'm disgusted that we didn't earn a F.

NE Bull:
The DARK BLUE states are in the Top Ten states with the LOWEST GUN DEATH RATE.
Illinois gets a B and doesn't make that list?  I call BS! on that!

Something that has always really bothered me is the insane gun control in the original 13 Colonies in the North East- Talk about losing sight of your Heritage. Sad Sad Sad.

One thing the antigunners always do is include all gun deaths, including suicides and criminals killed by police or by citizens in self defense.  If you look at actual gun homicides the picture is MUCH different.
