LOL. Ever heard of the Gun show loophole? Republicans refuse to close it.

"The rate of gun fatalities varies widely from state to state. Stricter laws = less death.
The states with the highest total rates of gun-related deaths counting murders, suicides and all other categories tracked by the CDC included Mississippi (33.9 per 100,000 people), Louisiana (29.1), New Mexico (27.8), Alabama (26.4) and Wyoming (26.1).
The states with the lowest total rates included Massachusetts (3.4), Hawaii (4.8), New Jersey (5.2), New York (5.4) and Rhode Island (5.6)."

"Firearms accounted for nearly 19% of childhood deaths (ages 1-18) in 2021, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wonder database. Nearly 3,600 children died in gun-related incidents that year. That’s about five children lost for every 100,000 children in the United States. In no other comparable country are firearms within the top four causes of mortality among children."
