Firearm Violence Statistics by State
This came from a leading Limey newspaper. It is interesting that Washington D.C. leads the list with the most restrictive firearm laws. The trend is maintained. This will show that loose gun laws mean low fatality rates so long as there are no appreciable number of Negroes. At the original link you can click on each column to sort by that category of data. It would be interested to sort the states by percentage of Negroes in the population.
