Was looking for permits by state and found this for TN by county, it appears Shelby has the most. SHELBY  15,947 https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/safety/documents/handgun/HandgunCarryPermit

Actually, that is just the number of permits issued in Shelby in 2019.  The total of permit holders there is 71,078.  Still far past second place Knox which has 39,895.

It's not the large number of permits in Shelby county that concerns me.  The crime is primarily the result of those who don't have a permit and can't legally possess a gun.
