Well the problem is your original argument was about total numbers and not rates, that’s disingenuous. Then you scrambled and posted two articles showing rates. The first showed Cali with a better rate than the national average. The second one claimed Cali had the highest right but provided a broken link to source material that would actual show where those numbers come from.
A quick search shows what your first link said. Cali is below the national average, not the most. But if you have another partisan opinion article with broken sources you’d like to post to back up your disingenuous arguments then please go right ahead
