Maybe we're just smarter and don't get caught.

My understanding (from stuff posted here) is that in MN the ratio is even more lopsided.

It'd be even more interesting to see the stats broken out by age, race, and gender classes. Income, too, but I doubt that would be available.

Since permits holders are largely male, middle-aged or older, middle or upper-class, and white, I wonder how we compare to others like us, who don't have permits, rather than the general population over 21 at large.

Apples to apples, indeed.

Andrew Rothman or what ever his name is broke it out recently..

Mn permit holders
Male / Female ....90/10
over 40....50%
over 50...40%

race data not collected.

Not a lot of wild oats being sown in this group.

Permit Holders: Old, Fat White Guys. :mrgreen:
