I looked at a few of the 2011 states data from the BATFE.
341 weapons went from Florida to New York. http://www.atf.gov/statistics/download/trace-data/2011/2011-trace-data-new-york.pdf
99 weapons went from New York to Florida. This data is omitted whenever New York whines about the interstate movement of weapons. Would this be considered a "balance of trade" issue? http://www.atf.gov/statistics/download/trace-data/2011/2011-trace-data-florida.pdf
In Massachusetts, the top three cities for trace requests are listed as Boston, Dorchester and Roxbury. However, Roxbury and Dorchester are both within the city limits of Boston. Inspires confidence when a detail like that is missed, doesn't it? http://www.atf.gov/statistics/download/trace-data/2011/2011-trace-data-massachusetts.pdf

Note the widget doesn't tell the whole story--and that's a calculated decision. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes there are lies, damned lies, and interactive maps prepared by public radio weenies with an agenda.
