Did you know ANYTHING about statistics? VT is obviously an outlier, but on the average the correlation holds up.

Obviously you don't. Based on STATISTICS, New York State would need 3 times the amount of gun related deaths just to get to the color of Arizona according to your map and the population differences of each state (6.5 Mil Arizona 2011 vice 19.5 Mil New York 2011).

Never let a few pesky facts shape your argument. Just use what you need and throw the rest away.
