Guns lead to more crime. Oh, wait, never mind.

Minnesota land of guns and low crime. Explain this gun control advocates.

Regardless of how your feel about guns with over 300 million in the USA there is no gun control law that will make any difference.

The State Department of Public Safety reports 283,188 Minnesotans now have permits to legally carry firearms in public.

In 2017, the state issued 57,651 permits to carry a weapon in public. That’s down from a record 71,156 permits issued in 2016.

There’s still a lot we don’t know about guns in Minnesota. An estimated 36.7 percent of Minnesotans own at least one firearm.

But we don’t know how many total guns there are in the state, or exactly how many gun owners there are, or how much ammunition is sold every year.

Maybe...just maybe...requiring permits from the state for any public carry (and the more extensive than NICS backgrounds that’s go with such permits) is part of the solution to keeping gun crime down.

Demographics in the state might also have something to do with it.

I'd like to see something similar to what is required for concealed carry in order to be able to purchase firearms. A vetted buyer, so to speak.
