"Double the number of children are killed by guns in states with more lenient gun laws than those with strict laws, according to research.
After motor vehicle accidents, guns are the second biggest killer of children in the U.S. Researchers at the Stanford School of Medicine wanted to answer whether strict gun control laws correspond with lower rates of children dying in firearm-related incidents.
The team studied the gun laws of all 50 states, as well as data from the Web-based Injury Statistics Query and Reporting System run by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. They also used the 2014 Brady scores, which rate how tough gun laws are by state, with Arizona ranking -39 with the most relaxed laws, and California at +76 with the strictest. The 2014 child access prevention (CAP) laws indexed by the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence were also used. Across the country, 27 states have Child Access Protection laws, which can mandate locking mechanisms or storage requirements for guns."
