your data might be outdated. National average for murder is 4.8 currently. Does that include suicide?
as of 2010: NY is 4.5 and TN is 5.6

NY actually does not have stricter training standards for all residents. It seems like it varies with county, but does not look like the state does not. Hope I am wrong. In NYC, if you have the right bank account size, same day service with no training required.
