- frereubu 5y agoBut if you look here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_firearm-related_death_rate#List https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_firearm-r... - the USA has a very high per-capita gun homicide rate (4.46) compared to most other comparable countries (e.g. the G7 countries which are 0.2, 0.52, 2.33, 1.04, 1.13 and 0.02). Interesting that France (2.33) is so high - I hadn't realised that.
- Grakel 5y agoThe vast majority (practically all) gun homicides happen in a handful of counties where guns are completely banned and are gang members killing gang members. That's a cultural and economic problem that isn't solved by gun laws.
