what grade does your state get

stalebiscuit · 04-25-2008, 01:37 PM

i like looking at the lies on the brady campaign websites, about how gun dealers in gun shows dont perform back-ground checks (the crabby ones get angry if i pick up a handgun even to check it out)

anyway, georgia rocks, they gave my state like a 9 out of 100 points

Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence

check your state and post the score!!!

Illinois 28 out of 100 ranks 9 out of 50. But I saw some things about Illinois I didn't/ don;t believe are true. One had to do with gun shows and loopholes and background checks. From what I know, if you buy a gun from an Illinois gun show, they will do a back ground check and you still, have to wait 24 hours for a rifle and 72 hours for a hand gun, if an Illinois resident I believe?

As for loopholes, I guess they meant the fact Illinois still allows them.

All I got to say is this, Brady Campaign>>> PFFT!

Minnesota got a 11, and some good news is that the lead bullet ban got dropped from senate. Bad news is, it will come back within the next year or two.

HOLY CRAP, I THOUGHT THEY WOULD BE WORSE THAN GA!

Crime is LOW, comparatively speaking, mainly crimes against un-armed women tops the List...Most of us are packing !!! It makes for a friendlier place!
