Finding the scores at the Brady site is tedious and in a rather strange format, so I researched all the states and listed them alphabeticaly according to acronym.

It is notable, with the exception of California, nearly all the states with the worst scores are small, with most on the East Coast.

Vermont is the only far left state in single digits. If we could manage to vote Philadelphia out of the Commonwealth, I think we could get there too.

marktwain, thanks for the effort!
Woo hoo! Alabama at 2!
And the state I happily fled a year ago, Illinois, a 28.
I was sure it would be in the California range. I'm sure the fine Illinois legislature is working to correct that.

I would have thought the PRNJ would be at the bottom, but Kalifornia beat them out. Both states have big, big problems.

Well, Texas does not allow open carry in public for handguns, it could use a better preemption statute, and it still has quite a few places that it bans carry of concealed guns from.

The numbers are ratings, not rankings. From a gun rights perspective lower numbers are better. 6 is pretty good score.

The fact that we have *any* states with a grade above 2 is a disgrace.
To: marktwain
Just eyeballing the ratings, there seems to be a strong correlation between high Brady scores and high rates of violent crime and vice versa.

California scores 79, takes the top.
We're #1!
We're #1!

To: marktwain; All
PA....25??????
A shall issue state, which allows you to carry while in bars. Heck, you can even drink while in bars!
Printing is fine.
Open Carry is fine.
Paperwork between father and son or vice versa for transferring guns? Not required.
I would argue PA has the best gun laws out there.
Especially our Constitution:
Right to Bear Arms Section 21.
The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and the State shall not be questioned.

It is hard to see into the mind of irrationality.
To: Red in Blue PA
I’m right there with you - PA isone of the tops
To: NativeSon
I guess it’s a good thing if the Brady campaign thinks we have bad laws;-)
The one bad thing is that PA did have more mayors tan any other state who were members of MAIG. They can all GTH.
