What's your Brady score?

The Brady Bunch have released their state of the States report on gun laws.
Most states have weak or non-existent gun laws that help feed the illegal gun market, allow the sale of guns without Brady background checks and put families and children at risk, according to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. But more and more states are pushing legislation to strengthen their gun laws. The organization's 2008 state scorecards, which rate each state on the strength of its gun laws, are being released today for all 50 states.
California tops the list at 79 followed by New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and New York. I don't know what the red highlights denote but North Carolina is way too high on the list at 20. Come on guys, we can do better. Lets try to get it down to single digits. Go to GRNC or, if you must, the NRA and see what you can do to help in that endeavor.
