The cult of personality known as Giffords gives North Carolina a C-. The Tar Heel State needs to do better. If Tennessee and South Carolina can get an F, why can’t we. If we will finally override Gov. Stein’s veto of SB50 on permitless concealed carry, I bet that would help.
On a more serious note, Giffords “reports” that North Carolina ranks 19 out of 50 in gun death rank. I’m not sure how this is determined. That said, given that North Carolina is the ninth largest state in the United States by population, our per capita rate is better than one would expect.
