CA leads the nation in lives lost, having 33+ percent more gun murders with 1257, than pro-gun texas with its 805.
This, in spite CA having much much stricter gun control, and in spite of texas having what approaches double the gun ownership rate at 35.9%, to CAs 21.3%.
But gee, as long as they have the same rate, none of those other details matter, right? 
And...not to pick nits, but, according to what I'm reading, Texas has a slightly higher overall murder rate at 5.0 per 100k, while CA is at 4.9.
That strikes me as interesting, since the gun murder rate is lower in pro gun Texas at 3.2, than it is in gun control utopia CA at 3.4.

In general, I thought it was lives that mattered to you anti-gunners, not rates.
The fact that you lot switch when its convenient is pretty obvious.
