I’m not sure I believe that. Vermont is not really a hotbed of gun violence.

But is it true? Anybody have data they can link to support it? I wish James would have posted source data to make this more meaningful and bulletproof.
It's not true but it's not false.
CDC on gun deaths per 100,000
If you calculate by total deaths, the map isn't too far off. If you calculate by deaths per 100,000, i.e. how likely you are to get killed by a gun in a particular area, it's pretty much the same map, but the red is dangerous and the blue is safe.

How come BR and NO aren't more blue? Has to be a typo somewhere.

"Gun deaths" is a terribly idiotic statistic to use.

If the graph is correct (which I doubt it’s that extreme) those blue areas only have 3% of the gun population. I think you made a point you didn’t mean to.
You're missing the point.
When only criminals have guns in those blue zones ..... think about it.
