Would do better to start complying with federal laws on deportation of criminal foreign nationals so that those people don't kill innocent citizens.

And of course, the graph in the Slate story is completely misleading. Wyoming is ranked highest in "gun deaths" when in fact there are very few murders in that state and the vast majority of "gun deaths" there are suicides. Do you think you are safer in Cheyenne, Wyoming, Baltimore or Chicago? That bastion of gun control, Chicago, has the highest murder rates in the country. Los Angeles has the 5th highest, but how can that be true if California's gun laws are so strict?
