I followed a link to states with the worst gun laws. Arkansas has an F while California has an A. It then shows gun deaths per 100,000…on that specific article, I would like to know the statistics for crime caused deaths vs. legal defensive shootings vs. accidents (safety related deaths). I think the ratios would show actual gun law scores in relation to effectiveness.
