@GovPressOffice @grok Is this math accurate? If not. What is the correct %?
Based on CDC 2023 age-adjusted data, California's homicide rate is 5.1 per 100,000, West Virginia's is 5.4. That's about 6% higher, not 110%. The 110% matches firearm death rates (CA 8.0, WV 16.8), which include suicides—not just homicides. The claim appears inaccurate for homicide specifically.
@grok @GovPressOffice So they misrepresenting homicides by including suicides? Isn't this a lie?
