do the right wing guys think it’s like a draco malfoy thing where they’re a good guy underneath?
like when it’s like a lady and a cop and the lady seems like a normal sorta boring suburban lady

Now go ahead and break those incidents down into a few subcategories:
Personal defense
Police
Gang violence
Accidents
Suicides
A raw number is a small piece of a much larger puzzle. Plus yeah, a conservative state with more people carrying will probably have more incidents involving guns. Same thing happens with places with more cars - more collisions.
If your talking about the firearm mortality rate, the top 4 states for firearm mortality are also the top 4 for homicide rate… there are a lot of similarities between the two and a strong correlation.
