Actually, if you'd taken the time to research before posting, you'd know that cities in Republican states, with weak or no gun control, actually lead the nation in gun deaths.

Highest per capita death-by-gun city?

Chicago is far down the list.

St. Louis, in good ole Republican Solid South MO, with little or no gun control, is the nation's leading gun-death-per-capita city,

Higher death-by-gun rates than Chicago?

St. Louis MO, New Orleans LA,  Kansas City KS, Atlanta GA, Memphis TN, Miami FL, all good Republican towns.

Gun deaths per-capita by state?

The top ten states if you want to be shot are Alaska, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Wyoming, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Tennessee, all Republican.
