The FBI’s national crime report for 2023 shows a record-breaking decline in murders during a year when the number of states adopting so-called “constitutional carry” rose to 29, undercutting a popular—and obviously false—claim by the gun prohibition lobby that more guns result in more crime.
By no surprise, anti-gunners—including the national media—have ignored that fact. However, the popular HandgunLaw.us website has a complete list of all 29 permitless carry states with the dates their laws became effective.
According to the Brennan Center, “The bureau’s data closely aligns with predictions from independent experts, all of whom estimated steep drops in murders in 2023 and 2024 alike. Indeed, it’s clear that the 2020 murder spike that coincided with the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic has substantially (but not completely) receded.”
A careful glance at the FBI National Instant Check System raw data for background checks suggests continued strong firearms transactions over the past few years. The FBI report was released a week ago, yet there has not been a lot of national ballyhoo.
