To help with just how well gun control works, heres the statistics, put in a easy-to-read ratio. 1-death per 5,400 people (1:5400) in Chicago 1-death per 24,000 people (1:24,000) in Austin. Now, here in Utah, which has 2.9 million people, and even less strict gun laws than Texas, had approx 35 gun-related homicides (2013), which puts it at 1-death per 83,000 people (1:83,000). Seeing a trend here? Now, if you really want to get technical, how many of gun-related homicides are gang/drug related? Id be willing to bet the farm, that if you deducted those from the total, the numbers would drop drastically. Maybe we dont have a gun problem, as much as we have a cultural ignorance problem...
