NH has a low ownership rate. And low homicide.FL is very pro gun. How about we compare NYC to Jacksonville?So you don’t want an honest comparison like Houston to NYC? You lose in honest comparisons. You just dishonestly cherry pick. There are many gun control countries with lower homicide rates than NH btw...Not to the murder rate it doesn't
The murder rate of a state is MURDERS PER 100000 residents it doesn't matter where they live in that state
Or are you finally realizing that it is the ultra violent inner cities that skew the murder rate of the entire country ?
I'm not cherry picking I am comparing one state to another
That you want to just use cities is cherry picking
And lower than 1 per 100000 isn't much of a difference now is it?
As I said it is not gun laws and only gun laws that drive the murder rate and we see that some states with low murder rates have rather lax gun laws and some states with very strict gun laws have higher murder rates than those with loose gun laws,
There is obviously more to the equation
But you want to stick to simple grade school arguments like More gun laws = lower murder rates
But the evidence contradicts you
Low compared to what?
and how low?
