Indiana has a higher firearm death rate than Illinois… https://t.co/Z7fxopwJn0 feel free to take a look, maybe I’m wrong. https://t.co/ofUThjQs8R

This is an interesting tidbit I hadn’t come across before, courtesy of one of the Parkland kids: For all the talk about Chicago, the per capita firearm death rate in Indiana is 28% higher than in Illinois, which has tighter gun laws. https://t.co/4rnQjVO2hi
