Brady Campaign state gun control scorecard for 2011

[Deerthug]

Just read an interesting article in the NRA-ILA about how the govt rates each states gun control laws. Quote from the article:

"The Brady Campaign’s scores aren’t based on whether anyone gets murdered, raped, robbed, or beaten in any particular state; the group is just happy if the state has its favorite gun control laws on the books."

How can California with one of the highest crime rates have a better score than Idaho or Iowa with the lowest crime rates?

Because to them, it's all about gun control and nothing to do with crime control.

It's a sad state of events that they ONLY care about gun control.
