      DC is the major outlier here.

      Extremely strong gun laws, very high gun deaths

      Why is the 2nd map adjusted for age morality on a „deaths by firearm map“?

      Those numbers should not include suicides because people will just kill themselves in more painful ways.

      NJ restriction on guns in vehicles was just tossed so our blueness needs to be tossed too. Bummer.

      The use of a “dense rank” seems pretty dumb and makes the chart hard to read. Three states having a rank of 11 and the highest rank being 45ish makes it pretty confusing to read.

      I don’t understand this. If the states are ranked and the scale is 1 to 50, why do they appear to range from 3 to 45?

      I do see a correlation here, but I think there are a lot of other factors that drive lower gun deaths in blue states. Economic and social policies play a big role in making people not want to murder others.

      Does anyone have a rosetta stone for this data? Virginia needs fewer gun restrictions.

      Criminals still get guns in Chicago…see? Gun laws dont work!

      Said with sincerity without once looking at a map like this lol

      Interesting it mostly correlates with places I’d be more interested in visiting as an international tourist….

      Doesn’t „number of gun safety policies“ actually mean nothing though. A state could have 50 policies that minimally improve the safety of firearms and still have a much higher implied risk than a state with only 1 massively impactful policy.

      Pepe come up with every possible reason to reject the obvious evidence of their eyes on this issue.

      To the gun nuts — save yourselves the logical gymnastics. There is a correlation between permissive gun laws and higher rates of gun deaths, both between states and between countries. But it doesn’t matter— your side has already won. Classrooms full of schoolchildren are gunned down every year in the United States, and no meaningful gun laws have been passed. The USA is the ONLY first world country with any meaningful number of gun deaths, not to mention our mass shooting epidemic.

      There have been 75 school shootings so far this year, 31 dead and 100+ injured. This is only a fraction of the nearly 400 mass shootings in the US so far this year. And mass shootings are only a small portion of overall gun deaths.

      There are several counties in CA that don’t report gun crime to the FBI. It should be much higher than it shows.

      Seems a bit dumb.

      A state could have 1 gun safety policy that bans guns or a  100 that do effectively nothing.

    29. amoneyshot34 on

      So if I’m ready this right? Chicago, la and new York have fewer gun homicides than Kentucky 4 mill Montana 1 mill and Alaska under a mill? Or are they counting suicides, hunting accidents, and accidents with a fire arm in general?

    30. wha-haa on

      From my exposure to other Map porn here, it seems the deaths by firearms rate goes up steeply where the population is low or there is a larger population of black people.

    31. justaBranFlake on

      All i learned from this is Alaska is a leader in guns death because 70% of their deaths from guns is suicide… damn and i want to live there for a few years

    32. bL0oDlUsT218 on

      I think this is extremely misleading. The bigger state populations are going to have lower values, but could still have 10x the deaths than say a state like Montana.

      Using total number per x population skews it to support a certain narrative, where it might actually not. For something like this. Total # of deaths should be used, and then reference it to the total population of the states. After finding the median.

      Once you get a baseline then it’s easier to tell exactly what this information is telling us.

      (Like, how many monatanas does it take to get to whatever Texas or Illinois number of deaths is etc etc)

      Reading through the comments just makes me dislike americans more. Hope you like having the highest murder rate of all highly developed countries and burying your head in the sand instead of doing something about it. Im sure all the middle age men who kill themselves and kids in school will thank you for thinking about the guns!

      This is off. Indiana has more lax laws than Kentucky. I don’t understand this at all.

    35. Panem-et-circenses25 on

      The more guns a society has, the more gun deaths there will be.
