The Giffords Law Center released its nationwide, annual gun law scorecard.
The study graded states by their gun safety measures and 2018 gun violence statistics.
The center is a nationally known policy organization that has supported the reduction of gun violence through stricter gun laws.
The center said gun violence kills more than 1,000 Michigan residents each year.
It gave Michigan a letter grade of "C" and ranked the state 16 out of 50.
The study said Michigan's gun related death rank is 37 out of 50.
The study also found that Michigan's gun violence has disproportionately impacted communities of color.

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
