The question I always have when this cross-border gun availability canard is raised by the left is: If it is simply the availability of guns in state X (Vermont in this case) that leads to gun crime, then why isn't state X experiencing an elevated level of firearms-related crime?
If I am not mistaken; Vermont has one of lowest statewide crime rates in the country. Gun violence is primarily a function of demographics and much less about the availability of legal firearms.

Vermont has one of lowest statewide crime rates in the country. That's more with Vermont being a homogeneous people. No gibsmedats or third-worlders infesting the state.

See the ATF stat map
...in 2014, 55 guns recovered in NY came from VT. 100s more from states like PA, FL, GA, VA
