What an interesting source of real data!

Table 20 shows that murders by firearms by State has California (with some of the most bizarre & extreme gun control laws in the USA) as having fully the most murders (1879) of any state. California again shines as an example in leading in firearms related robberies in Table 21, as it also does in firearm related aggravated assaults. So much for gun control laws in the great state of California.

Table 6 Murders by Metropolitan Area (listing those in excess of 10 murders per 100,000 people) also shows where the real murders are taking place in this country. We don't have a firearms murder problem we have a Big metropolitan area drug/gang/poverty crime problem that results in murders.

Atlantic City
Baton Rouge
Beckley WV
Detroit-Warren, MI
Flint MI
Goldsboro NC
Hilton Head Island-Bluffton-Beaufort, SC
Jackson MS
Macon GA
Memphis TN
Mobile AL
Montgomery, AL
New Orleans, LA
Philadelphia, PA
Pine Bluff AR
Saginaw MI
Salinas CA
Stockton-Lodi, CA
Sumter SC
Arecibo, Puerto Rico
Guayama Puerto Rico
Mayaguez, Puerto Rico
Ponce, Puerto Rico
San Juan-Carolina-Caguas, Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is just off the chart as far as dangerous.

Back pocket GOVT data to counter all the out of state anti gun nazis when the NV legislature takes up the anti gun push next session. Carson City ain’t that far from my house that I can’t make myself a pain in their asses. Plus I kinda know a couple of the legislators that’ll stand up for our rights. I’ve been gathering info since the last session since I now know what they’re gonna bring in.
