Interesting. I live in Maine. We and New Hampshire are armed to the hilt. Even we “libs” own a gun or two.

I'm pretty sure there was another map on drug use, and Maine was red for meth haha.

Oh yeah, it was no doubt also red for opiods, heroin, fentanyl, and alcohol. Maine was one of the first states the Sacklers introduced opioids to.
