An analysis this year from
the Violence Policy Center found that “states with low gun ownership
rates and strong gun laws have the lowest rates of gun death.” The report
continued, “by contrast, states with weak gun laws and higher rates of gun
ownership had far higher rates of firearm-related death.” According to the
analysis, Massachusetts, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut had the
lowest per capita gun death rates. Each of those states had “strong gun laws
and low gun ownership rates. On the other hand, “ranking first in the nation
for gun death was Louisiana, followed by Wyoming, Alabama, Montana, and
Mississippi.” Those states had “weak gun laws and higher rates of gun
ownership.”
