300,000 lives could be saved in the next decade if states followed
California’s example on gun laws
requirements for a background check and/or permits to purchase firearms; a
permit to carry concealed guns in public; the secure storage of firearms;
the rejection of ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws; and the enactment of ‘extreme
risk’ laws that temporarily remove a person’s access to firearms when there
is evidence that they pose a serious risk to themselves or others.
used data from the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention,
looking at their rates of gun deaths in 2022, and compared those
rates with 50 up-to-date policies for each state that they say are
scientifically proven to be effective in preventing gun violence. The CDC’s
data includes homicides, accidental killings and suicides committed with
guns.
The team then weighed gun safety policies based on their efficacy, ranked
each state on its implementation of those policies and compared that score
with the rates of gun deaths in each state. |
