    Default CBS - How armed is your state.

    Article on CBS about how many registered firearms are in each state not including pistols.

    I feel like I have seen this before. Clearly one sided on a certain agenda. My first thought reading California was, okay out of those "registered" firearms how many are involved in crimes? Did the article go into that? No. That's ridiculous. Then when you get to Colorado it is a picture of Firing Line...which is close to the Aurora Theater where the shooting took place. Why is that necessary? It's not. More agenda. I hate the news.

    I feel like the firing line has always had a good amount of media attention long before the theater shooting. I was there when a news crew was setting up a years back, and I've seen shots of their sales floor used a time or two before that.

    Having lived there for several years, I believe that it is. However, not legal guns per local laws....but believe me the guns are there. LOL

    DC is #2 and Virginia is #5. Who inhabits these places? Mostly federal employees, many who are armed for their jobs. There are some issues with the ranking.

    How can it be NFA items when DC does not allow NFA items in the district
