Except you can actually compare like states... and show the results still hold.
Or like cities if you'd be so inclined.
South Carlona and North Carolina are extremely similar... have widely different gun laws.... and North carolina owns a lot more guns.
Yet their murder rates are nearly identical.
Also i would disagree that the cultures are far more different then the USA and Britain.
The cities with the biggest murder rates in the US?
Washington DC,
Detroit,
Cleveland
Etc. There states have very varied gun owership numers.
Washington DC having the least of any city or state. Since it was pretty much illegal till recently.
