Population Rank - 4th in U.S. behind California, Texas & New York

Considering California and New York probably have lower rates of gun ownership due to the hoops your average Joe has to jump through this makes sense.

I would Imagine many guns stolen in Texas end up over the border.

Also, I would imagine that NY and California have a lot more gang members than Florida. It wouldn't make sense to steal a gun in NY, and sell it out of state. You would sell it to someone in state.....deeply flawed logic in this article.
