Aside from the relatively loose federal restrictions that apply everywhere, each state can determine much of its own gun purchasing, possession and carry rules. In states like New York and California, where these laws are relatively strict, purchasing and carrying a firearm is notably more restricted than in states with comparatively lax laws, like Alaska and New Mexico. But how those rules impact the rate of gun-related deaths in those states remains hotly contested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every year, the \u003ca href=\"http://smartgunlaws.org/search-gun-law-by-state/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence\u003c/a>, an advocacy group pushing for tougher gun control regulations, reviews each state's gun laws and assigns grades based on the strength of its policies to regulate the sale and use of firearms and ammunition.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Center points to a 2010 statistic showing that seven out of 10 states with the strictest regulations also the lowest gun homicide rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But gun rights advocates opposed to tighter regulations argue that this kind of comparison is misleading. A common rebuttal is that stricter regulations don't do anything to prevent criminals from getting a hold of guns - they simply prevent law abiding citizens from being able to protect themselves. Gun rights advocates also commonly point to states like Maine, which has some of the loosest regulations in the country (it received an F grade by gun control groups) but also has a relatively low gun death rate).

On the contrary, they argue, the strict gun laws in cities like Chicago and Washington D.C. have failed to prevent those rising homicide rates in those places.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The gun laws in Chicago only restrict the law-abiding citizens and they've essentially made the citizens prey,\" Richard A.
