But those city liberals aren't making the gun laws. The conservative state government is.
And once again, your correlation falls apart. Memphis is a much more dangerous city than Chicago despite being in a state with very permissive gun laws. Statistically Atlanta has more violent crime as well. There is no correlation either way between local gun laws and violence. What correlates to violence in a city more than anything else is poverty levels and demographics.
