Yeah, because “Upper Minnesota” has so much more gun violence than Chicago and Detroit. FAIL.

It might, actually, as a percentage of the population. It’s entirely possible.

The highest correlation between gun violence and anything was a vote for McCain.

Holy crap, did I misread that. I thought it was the claim that the places that voted more for Romney had higher gun crime. Because, well, that’s reality.
