    \caption*{\footnotesize \textit{Notes}: This figure reports the results from event study analysis of the SYG laws on murder. It plots both the point estimates and their 95 percent confidence intervals. Standard errors are clustered by the state. The years after the laws pass witness an increase in murder, and the effects are larger and persistent.}
