States with strong gun laws curb self harm and gun homicides
A JAMA Internal Medicine study ties strict state gun laws to lower firearm suicides and overall firearm homicide rates. Researchers from Weill Cornell, Columbia, and UPenn analyzed county death data 2010 to 2014, noting cross border effects from neighboring states with different laws. They found that strict laws in nearby states can reduce gun violence in lax states’ counties, while tight laws within a state may lessen both self harm and homicide rates.
