The United State has average traffic deaths compared to other countries but much higher number of firearm-related deaths than comparable countries. Something is out of wack in the US so it makes sense to put political energy into it.
I think I would agree liberals may overly focus on mass shootings because handguns are killing most of the people but gun violence is a real problem.

Gun violence is high in Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador, Jamaica, etc. I'm not sure it's fair to compare the United States to some nordic country on another continent rather than its own neighbors.
