The places with some of the highest gun crime rates have the strictest anti-gun laws in the nation.(NYC, D.C., Chicago, Boston)

Places with very liberal gun laws have much lower gun crime rates. Alaska and Vermont have NO laws prohibiting carrying concealed handguns. Alaska and Vermont also have very low crime rates. Anybody who can legally own a gun in Alaska or Vermont can carry a concealed handgun. Not everyone does, but everyone CAN.

People don't like to hear facts that disagree with their position, and I'm absolutely certain I'll get flamed for pointing this out, but hey, denial ain't just a river in Egypt folks.
