91% Of Cops Oppose Gun Control In 2013 Survey

#11

Quote:I actually missed this.

 

It's not true.

 

The states with the highest death rates per capita by firearms are the ones with the loosest gun restrictions.

 

1. Alaska

2. Louisiana

3. Mississippi

4. Alabama

5. Arkansas

6. Montana

6. (Tie) Wyoming

8. Oklahoma

9. New Mexico

10. Tennessee

 

To be fair, that also contains suicides and of course, accidental shootings by toddlers.

Fewest firearm deaths?  Hawaii, which has comically high restrictions on guns.

Per capita will be completely skewed. It is evident when you see that the top 10 has low populations. I imagine that the folks living in poor neighborhoods in Chicago wish they had the same gun problems as those 10 states.
