That is if you leave out the mostly black democrat run cities. We don't have a gun problem - we have a black male problem.

aug 20 2022 USA- It is common for gun control zealots to bloviate about how the United States is such a violent country, and others such as Canada’s dictator in chief Justin Trudeau using the crime rate in the United States as justification to seize
firearms from his citizenry.
And yes, the United States is ranked third when it comes to our murder rate.
Now, want to know a dirty little secret? If you remove the following cities—Chicago, Detroit, Washington, DC, St. Louis and New Orleans—from the equation, the land of the free and home of the brave slips all the way down to 189 out of 193.
So what gives? Democrats want to take guns away from an overwhelming majority of law-abiding, God-fearing citizens because five Democrat-run cities can’t control their population?
Heck, New York City and Philadelphia aren’t even included on that list. Add them in and we’re probably swimming with the fishes.
So what is the common denominator? They’re all run by Democrats. It matters not how much money is directed to feel good programs, or improving schools, or criminal justice reform. The results are the same.
