The national average of veterans is about 10 percent. If you look at the map at the link, the states with the best gun laws have the most veterans, those with the worst gun laws have the least number of veterans.
Hey marktwain. Saw your house in Hartford last year. Lovely.
Do you think that perhaps those who are more likely to serve in the military are more likely to come from areas that have “best” gun laws? Meaning, areas that have less liberal political ideology may also produce more who are willing to serve their country? And are more likely to settle back in those areas as veterans?
Just a thought. My son, my 2 stepsons, my husband, his father... all served in USMC. Could get into a real chicken and egg analysis if I think too hard.
