Bah. Completely useless argument - why do the states with low gun control not have the same high crime rates?Most of them in the US involve people who are already criminals and involved in drugs, and often happen in cities with bans on guns (NYC, Washington DC [still, the laws haven't changed yet], Chicago).
I don't think state comparisions are as valid as international ones due to the much easier transporting of weapons mainly...
