Currently the USA ranks 65th in homicide rate by country. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate?wprov=sfla1 The homicides in the mentioned states never exceeded 3,500 (averaging 18% of the U.S total) in a year. Even when ignoring these homicides in the calculation, the USA's placing would only go from #65 to #68 https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/homicide_mortality/homicide.htm
