I’m thinking it’s not really that simple.

I didn’t say anything was simple.

I merely noticed that the states with the lowest murder rates all have strict gun laws, something the NRA/TPGOP ignores entirely as they repeat their slogans about the alleged futility of gun laws and the 2nd Amendment’s paramount importance.

And those states include big and small states, located in the northeast, midwest and west coast, so it’s not a purely regional dynamic. There just might be some correlation, but we’ll never hear that from the right since it would challenge their notion that only with more guns will we actually be more safe.
