State with craziest gun laws according to Democrats is also the safest state.

Something isn’t adding up. The state Democrats say has the worst gun laws is the safest state.

I thought more guns and easy access to guns resulted in carnage in the streets.

Liberals Say This State Has the “Craziest” Gun Laws – It’s Also the Safest State​

Then-Democrat primary rival Hillary Clinton specifically attacked Vermont’s lax gun laws (in an attempt at attacking Sanders) as fueling gun problems in other states, but she never went into the specifics of Vermont’s gun laws—or gun crime in the state. Among the criticisms Vermont has received from anti-gun groups includes:

• In 2009, the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence said that Vermont’s gun laws are the “worst in the nation,” which “lead to the illegal trade of firearms” and that they “put children at risk.”
• The Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence gives Vermont an “F” on its gun control scorecard.
• Vermont gets a few honorable mentions in a Washington Post article on the “6 Craziest State Gun Laws,” which reports that you can conceal and carry a firearm at age sixteen in the state without a license. The state also has no minimum age to own a rifle or shotgun.
• The Trace (a website started with funding by “Every Town for Gun Safety”) chided Vermont as a “gun rights paradise,” quoting one gun-rights activist as saying that “Vermont, for over 220 years, has never had permits, has never had registration, and has never had any serious gun control laws.”

Vermont sounds like a scene out of Mad Max when described by the anti-gun lobby, but the state’s residents would probably laugh at the characterization. Vermont was the safest state in the nation in 2016, 2017, and 2018, second safest in 2019 and 2020, and the safest in 2021, 2022 and 2023.

You'd think these idiots would check this stuff out first so they didn't look like idiots, but they never do.

Using that logic, surely the US is quite violence and crime free then?

So if you look at the gun stats and knife deaths per capita between the USA, UK, Australia, and New Zealand, then surely the USA has the lowest figures, right?
