#27. I am not surprised. We are a red county.

Not surprising about Texas, I lost all mine in a boating accident, just like all my friends.

Kind of amusing, though - the way that red blob in northwest Louisiana stops at the border. Lies, damned lies and statistics.

I don’t know a single person that doesn’t have guns in their home, that chart is BS.

Whether accurate or not, good find. Thanks for the ping. Could have something to do with this organization: http://www.sdgunowners.org/

If it was based on number of ‘concealed permits per capita’, every one of Vermont’s 14 counties would be at the top of the list. Everybody in the state with a driver’s license has, by definition, a concealed carry permit.

No drivers license required.

“..”...no idea how they got the info.” ...”

They asked. People answered.

These numbers are weird to me.

There are 3,007 counties and 137 county equivalents in the USA, but by county #101 we’re down (from a high of 59%) to less 25% of people with guns?

Franklin County VT is one of the few counties over 50% but the counties neighboring it are all out of the top 100, at under 25%?

Chittenden County (neighbor to the south) is also on the list. I do agree that the numbers seem questionable though.
