pewresearch.org and FT are using different gun deaths definitions. Compare France.
Gun death rate in France is 27 per million.
Death from assault by firearm in France is 2 per million.
To compare the US to Sweden we need rate of death from assault by firearm for the US.
- romafirst3 3y agowhat is the difference between the two definitions ? btw, we've somehow been back-watered here on the site. I can't even find this thread in my profile, and it's only shown on the main page for this comment as a part of another thread. Hackernews has gotten weird lately.
- slaw 3y agopewresearch.org numbers are off, it claims the US total gun deaths including suicides is only 4 times of France. Deaths by police and military seems very low. This thread is collapsed by default, but I can still see it.
