[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're right. The coincidence is that Chicago Baltimore and Detroit are surrounded by neighboring areas where it's super easy to get guns.[/quote] How does that make sense when Maryland overall has a higher murder rate . It isn't just Baltimore, it is all the similar demographic zip codes between Maryland and Virginia where Maryland has a higher murder rate. If it were access to guns Virginia should have a higher murder rate, yet it is Maryland that does. I think it is the lower time served for violent crime in Maryland. About 90% of murder is committed by prior criminals -- that is the main factor[/quote]
