This is a classic example of that quote attributed to Mark Twain “statistics are like lamp posts for drunks, they’re used more for support than illumination.“
Firearm deaths are committed mostly in a few concentrated areas within large cities. Here in St Louis, 90%+ murders are in a few zip codes and the demographics, including prior violent criminal charges, are well know. Those zip codes voted overwhelmingly for Biden, for the Democratic Mayor and Democratic prosecutor.
I suspect if you dig deeper with the intention of understanding the situation (which of course you won’t) you’d find the same. Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana for example.
And your list is completely ridiculous. You have Wyoming on there in the bad list for example. They had 23 murders all year which is a three day weekend during the summer in Chicago.
Missouri, as do many red states, has a large enough suburban and rural population who are pro-choice on gun ownership.
