re: New Hampshire: 3rd Highest Gun Owner Rate; Lowest Per Capita Homicide Rate

New Hampshire is ranked 47th in per capita gun ownership.

I had received my information from a trusted source, but she might've said 13th instead of 3rd and I misheard it. According to the data linked below, NH ranks 13th in gun ownership which is still very high.

I would make the following 2 points:

1) Guns aren't the problem. People are the problem.

2) Most of the areas with the highest murder rates also have some of the strictest gun laws. Taking guns away from law-abiding citizens might make some of them sitting ducks, but it won't solve the problem of gun violence.
