Obviously higher in some areas of the country such as some major cities and lower in other areas, but an interesting stat.
It most likely is different from state to state, but you make a good point.

The problem is the media is so hell-bent on trying to prove one side of the argument, that they hardly ever look at the other side.

Gotta love the articles written today claiming bloody murder. I find it faintly humorous that people are getting pissed off because the SCOTUS interpreted the constitution exactly how it was written.
