jhe, here are two fair comparisions.

Among states with high gun ownership, three states have high AA%, and they are Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi. The only two states with high AA% and lower gun ownership are Maryland and Delaware. The overall AA% of the two low-gun states is only 1% lower than that of the three high-gun states, yet their overall homicide rate is only 63% as high as the high-gun states. Clearly, when AA% is about the same, gun ownership makes a huge difference.

We see the same result for states with low AA%. The four low-gun states have an overall 6.3% AA%, which is even 43% higher than the 11 high-gun states' overall AA% of 4.4%, yet the high-gun states have an overall homicide rate of 6.5, 18% higher than that of the low-gun states.

Coincidences again? So you just win two more lottery jackpots? You can do the medium AA% and find your third jackpot for yourself.
The conclusion is obvious. When AA% is about the same, states with higher gun ownership have much higher homicide rates on average. If you can't see this, your hard beak must be so large that it blocks your view.
Homicide rates are from fbi's 2020 report.
