very lax gun laws



if you can't see a pattern there, all the studying in the world won't help you

look into the changes in crime and murder rates for before and after strict gun laws have been put in place. various different states, UK and australia have all brought in more strict gun laws in the past decade.

the states have always had a high murder rate. thats really nothing new.
