“The Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence says that Illinois has the eighth strictest gun laws in the United States. Meanwhile, Chicago has among the strictest gun laws of any city in the United States.”
And in areas like the Dakotas, Montana, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, many parts of Texas, Tennessee, and elsewhere where there are many, many law abiding firearms owners, people are probably having an enjoyable and safe Fourth of July.
..........my county in Texas had zero murders between 2006 and 2015 and pretty much everybody has multiple guns.
Though we now have Constitutional Carry I’ve still not seen anybody carrying a gun though I’m sure MOST have them in their vehicles.
The chart was cut off at 2015 or I would have given murders up to 2022. I think there was finally 1.
