That\u2019s more people in one year died of gun violence in America that have died throughout this entire war this Ukraine. More people died in one year from America from gun violence. If you think about it, and I know this gets into a political argument and all that, the top five states for gun violence, top five, are Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Missouri, and Wyoming. The bottom five states are Rhode Island, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York. There\u2019s a direct correlation to where there\u2019s lax gun laws, to where there\u2019s strict gun laws in how much gun violence there is.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>He continued, \u201cBravo to the president for doing his thing on ghost guns, which I know some people on the right reacted to. All he did was say that ghost guns should be treated like every other gun, which means they need a serial number and you need to go through a background check. He just said treat them like all other guns.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Dowd added, \u201cEvery single other democracy that is in the developed world doesn\u2019t have this problem.
