California has very quality mattresses gun control laws, an "assault weapon" ban, magazine capacity limits, a waiting period and a limit of the number of guns a person can buy every month. Texas has none of those, yet has a slightly lower gun murder rate.

Texas has one of the highest gun murders or all straights - along with robberies involving firearms and assaults with a firearm.
