A bunch of years ago, there was this gang of home invaders operating in MD. Pretty nasty people. Pretty brutal.

After a while they were caught. One of the reporters asked them, why they chose MD as opposed to the more affluent VA just across the river.

Their answer: Virginia has guns. Criminals might prefer operating in states with more restrictive gun laws.
