I felt like I was missing some contrast on what was the difference of gun death rate in New York versus the highest gun death rate state that I found. So I researched for an article on the gun death rate in New York. The article said that in N.Y. the gun death rate was 12 per 100,000 versus the gun death rate of Alaska being 19.8 per 100,000 people. I was surprised to see that there was so much difference between them two. I'm planing to include that argument on my research paper that seems like a strong cause of why all of the state of New York gun laws are working. Another thing I noticed is that in the list I found on the states with the highest gun deaths almost all of the states on that list do not required a permit to buy a firearm. In N.Y. is does required to have a permit in order to buy a firearm and getting a permit in N.Y. is not at all an easy task.
