The gaps in research are the multiple factors why gun-related homicides happen. Also, states have their own gun legislation including California, can deter results of this research, The research would also benefit from using the maximum size of population in the United States instead of comparing one state to another. My overall perspective on gun-related homicide is a problem and this topic needs to be studied by more people to get a group perspective on this
