Looking at the 2015 FBI data... https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2015/crime-in-the-u.s.-2015/tables/table-20 For the 12 states with constitutional carry, average: Murder rate: 3.65/100k Firearm murder rate: 2.59/100k For the 9 states (plus DC) with may/no issue carry permits, average: Murder rate: 5.75/100k Firearm murder rate 4.06/100k Constitutional carry states have a murder rate 36.5% lower than may/no issue states Constitutional carry states have a firearm murder rate 36.2% lower than may/no issue states Interesting, how the streets are not running with blood in states that do not require a permit to carry a concealed handgun.
What? 13% of the population commits 53% of the murders? If there were ever an argument for gun control, this is it!
No, we don't. Gun control is a useless panacea that does more harm than good, makes no one any safer, and accomplishes nothing but the undermining of civil liberties. Pass.
Amazing, no control over killing children but control over humans over them owning a gun. Astonishing to say the least.
The term "gun control" is too nebulous to be used the discussions of rights and laws. It means nothing on its own.
