DID YOU REALLY NEED A STUDY?:
The States With The Most Gun Laws See The Fewest Gun-Related Deaths (Libby Isenstein, 8/28/15, National Journal)
While it's certainly true that a number of factors contribute to the high rates of gun violence in the U.S., a comparison of state laws versus rates of shooting deaths does show a correlation. The states that impose the most restrictions on gun users also have the lowest rates of gun-related deaths, while states with fewer regulations typically have a much higher death rate from guns.
