    Liberals complain about all the gun crime, but what they don't tell you is that most of this gun violence in happening in their cities.

    Just a thought, but could it be possible that some of their 'progressive' social values and 'enlightened' policies is what is contributing to all this violence?

    Seems like liberals have a problem on their hands, and expect everyone else to make sacrifices so that they can attempt to deal it.

    There's no gun problem in Houston, Forth Worth, or Corpus Christi. All our guns shoot just fine and we generally hit what we are aiming at. So no problem. But most Democratic controlled cities are hell holes, which is weird since they tax the holy crap out of citizens and then they decide where all the money goes and liberals always shriek that with enough money they can fix any problem.

    ya, I see a lot of states, but where's Chicago,LA, NYC, St Louis, ........I thought this was about cities, not states.....
    I also see a lot of numbers assigned to eadch state, but none of the cities are given an appointment of numbers. I'd be willing to bet that those numbers in Indiana can be better represented by looking at Gary and Indianapolis and not Seymour or LaPorte.

    Welp...just as I thought, you are wrong again. I'll ignore the snide and false second comment eh!

    And mine is a college.
    http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Govern...en-Strict-Gun-Control-And-Less-Crime-Violence
    Now the actual study which busts more than one patently false statements commonly made by anti-gunners.

    http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/orgs/jlpp/Vol30_No2_KatesMauseronline.pdf

    Finally The Atlantic Cities promoting information by the BRADY BUNCH, LOL you like to stretch dontcha.

    Hmmmm - Gary Mauser - now THERE is a name that is associated with poor research

    So - was this backed by the Harvard university? It was published in the "Harvard journal of Law and Public Policy" - which is.....

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvard_Journal_of_Law_and_Public_Policy

    Hmmm - not exactly a peer reviewed journal with academic standing

    (Will ignore Brietbart as they got their information from the Mauser article and just add their own conspiracy theorizing to the mix)

    But even if I did bother to critique that "paper" the excerpt you posted would tell it's own tale. It is a strawman. Kellerman and many of the other researchers into gun related crime acknowledge the difficulty in inter country comparisons and prefer to compare across areas of the USA - which is what my diagram showed
