Why do people in red states shoot one another to death so often?

[IDIOCRACY]

Are they more accurate, less moral, or prevented by state law from saving lives?

Firearm Mortality

Map of deaths by firearms per 100,000 total population for each state

www.cdc.gov

Mississippi is a constitutional carry state allowing both open and concealed carry without a permit for law-abiding adults 21 and older
(18+ for active-duty military). No license is required to carry a loaded firearm openly or concealed within the state.
Its death per-capita rate is 29.4.

Massachusetts requires a state-issued License to Carry (LTC) for both concealed and open carry of handguns.
There is no permitless carry, and out-of-state permits are not recognized.
Its death-per-capita rate is 3.7.

Firearm laws are imposed primarily by states upon cities, of course. 43 states have what are known as “preemption” laws, prohibiting
local governments from enacting gun regulations that are stricter than those passed by state legislatures.

If Oklahoma City were to seek to reduce its high rate of gun deaths to the level of of Boston by enacting and enforcing less permissive laws, the State of Oklahoma would prevent it.​

Love me some liberal "scholars" who write that shit, and the dumbasses who repeat it. It's because leftists are lying mfers is why. I'd sure love to see it by district, but this will do.

Sorted by Cities with the Most Crime.
State Crime statistics for political reasons is baloney, look at the State's cities for a more accurate representation.
Per Capita Crime rate isn't used here, the data demonstrates where the most crime exists. Common sense - which downtown is safer? 100 robberies a day for a 100K city population or 51 robberies a day for a 50K city population...... You're almost twice as likely to be robbed in the city with the lower crime rate per capita.
Difference column = Simply Crime Rank minus Population Rank. Negative numbers suggest high crime for the population, positive numbers are more favorable.
Keep in mind, wealthy neighborhoods (primarily Democrat $) experience low crime because they have $ for security in nice places.
This is a guide, if you believe crime is reported equally, such as in SF where city crime is expected/ignored, then I have some swamp land…...
One of the top 17 leans Republican, and it's Dayton Ohio. The rest are Democrat. Wow, look at the crime to population. Shame, my parents were born there.
21 of the top 116 cities with the most crime lean Republican. 10 of 21 (48%) of these suggest crime to population is favorable.
77 of the top 116 cities with the most crime lean Democrat. 22 of 77 (29%) of these suggest crime to population is favorable. Two of these 22 cities voted Trump 2024, incidentally.
18 of the top 116 cities with the most crime are purple. 6 of 18 ( 33%) of these suggest crime to population is favorable.

[schmidlap]

If we outlawed guns, there would be no gun violence.

Speeding is illegal, so no one does it.

I oppose your suggestion that we "outlaw guns."

As some states demonstrate, intelligent regulation can reduce the carnage considerably.

States reduce automotive deaths by imposing driving requirement without banning driving.

It's media driven schmap...how long have these 'statitics' been saying this schmappy? if we don't know when they went up and/or down we can't draw any conclusions from these things, they say what someone wants them to say, hence the need to hide pertinent information...give us all the data including dates for when these differences occurred, otherwise it is an obvious propaganda hit piece by those who are really responsible.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Remove a certain 6%-7% of the population, and the problem magically disappears.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

woah. red state people are savages.

and yet somehow you haven't noticed until now, and only because the media told you that's what you are.

 

[Anathema]

The difference is simple.. outside of the criminal element, Blue State residents tend to be cowardly ***** who refuse to defend themselves most of the time and are highly ineffective when they do try it.

 

[whitehall]

Let's try it by cities and democrat strongholds. Would Chicago get a pass?

 

[SassyIrishLass]

"Age adjusted"? What does that mean?

More loon gobbilykook

 

[schmidlap]

woah. red state people are savages.

They may just shoot people more often than folks in blue states because their firearm regulation is more permissive.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

They may just shoot people more often than folks in blue states because their firearm regulation is more permissive.

Indiana is a red state, Indianapolis is a blue shit hole


Think hard

Love me some liberal "scholars" who write that shit, and the dumbasses who repeat it. It's because leftists are lying mfers is why. I'd sure love to see it by district, but this will do.

Sorted by Cities with the Most Crime.
State Crime statistics for political reasons is baloney, look at the State's cities for a more accurate representation.
Per Capita Crime rate isn't used here, the data demonstrates where the most crime exists. Common sense - which downtown is safer? 100 robberies a day for a 100K city population or 51 robberies a day for a 50K city population...... You're almost twice as likely to be robbed in the city with the lower crime rate per capita.
Difference column = Simply Crime Rank minus Population Rank. Negative numbers suggest high crime for the population, positive numbers are more favorable.
Keep in mind, wealthy neighborhoods (primarily Democrat $) experience low crime because they have $ for security in nice places.
This is a guide, if you believe crime is reported equally, such as in SF where city crime is expected/ignored, then I have some swamp land…...
One of the top 17 leans Republican, and it's Dayton Ohio. The rest are Democrat. Wow, look at the crime to population. Shame, my parents were born there.
21 of the top 116 cities with the most crime lean Republican. 10 of 21 (48%) of these suggest crime to population is favorable.
77 of the top 116 cities with the most crime lean Democrat. 22 of 77 (29%) of these suggest crime to population is favorable. Two of these 22 cities voted Trump 2024, incidentally.
18 of the top 116 cities with the most crime are purple. 6 of 18 ( 33%) of these suggest crime to population is favorable.

I was just about to say the RED STATE crime is coming from BLUE CITIES IN RED STATES.

Lefties claim truth can be a distraction.

 

[schmidlap]

They don't.

People in blue cities, however, kill each other at a rate that would make Genghis Khan blush.

Boston, Massachusetts has a population of 651,000.
In 2024, Boston reported 2 gun-related homicides.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma has 694,800.
In 2024, Oklahoma City reported 65 gun-related homicides.

Oklahoma City has far more permissive firearm regulation.

 

[22lcidw]

No, they don't.

That couple on their porch with weapons as they were threatened by BLM rioters and the DEI district attorney/AG charged them with a crime was proof enough of wariness in where you live. Move to other areas.

Your numbers are BS

 

[BluesLegend]

Are they more accurate, less moral, or prevented by state law from saving lives?

Wait breaking news, more shot DEAD and RAPED in Dem blue cities. Hold on, this just in, even more shot DEAD and more RAPED. Oh FFS, even more shot DEAD and more RAPED in Dem blue cities. Apparently it's a war zone.

Firearm Mortality

Map of deaths by firearms per 100,000 total population for each state

www.cdc.gov

Mississippi is a constitutional carry state allowing both open and concealed carry without a permit for law-abiding adults 21 and older
(18+ for active-duty military). No license is required to carry a loaded firearm openly or concealed within the state.
Its death per-capita rate is 29.4.

Massachusetts requires a state-issued License to Carry (LTC) for both concealed and open carry of handguns.
There is no permitless carry, and out-of-state permits are not recognized.
Its death-per-capita rate is 3.7.

Firearm laws are imposed primarily by states upon cities, of course. 43 states have what are known as “preemption” laws, prohibiting
local governments from enacting gun regulations that are stricter than those passed by state legislatures.

If Oklahoma City were to seek to reduce its high rate of gun deaths to the level of of Boston by enacting and enforcing less permissive laws, the State of Oklahoma would prevent it.​

Now do red vs blue counties.

 

[BluesLegend]

Let's try it by cities and democrat strongholds. Would Chicago get a pass?

Come on man I'm standing on a Chicago (ducks) street as (bullets ricochet off the sidewalk) right now and (hit the deck, it's a drive-by) it's perfectly safe...if you lay prone in the storm drain.

Most are probably suicides (but they want you to think they are murders, and you did). This suicide map looks a lot like yours in the OP....

Homicide map looks a bit different. This map would include homicide by guns, knives, vehicles, poisoning, nagging, etc.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Are you arguing there are a lot of POCs in Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming?

Now run the numbers for deaths from gun crimes. And split it up by race.

Was I?

Charlotte has the highest per capita murder rate in the State...
