Interesting Arkansas Stat
Here's an interesting Arkansas statistic.
A Justice Department report says Arkansas rejects a higher proportion of attempts to buy firearms than most other states.
One of every 48 prospective gun purchases in the state is rejected. On average, the survey of 40 states shows one of every 65 attempts to buy a gun is rejected.
Doesn't that also imply that we have a higher proportion of criminals than 39 other states? Or are we just really, really good at running background checks?
