i have found this in google (translated from Spanish)

In USA in year 2000 11,000 homicides were registered and more than 16,000 suicides in which firearms were used. The European Union, whose population surpasses in a 25% to the one of the United States, registered that same year less than 1,300 homicides by firearm. In Japan, in that year 22 only took place..

Already explained. Different cultures. The only comparisons that matter are comparisons within cultures.  Anyone with any statistical training could tell you this.


Not only is it already explained about the different cultures, but also, does it really matter?  Dead is dead...if someone wants to kill themselves or someone else, they'll do it...It doesn't matter if they have a gun, knife, poison, strangle, baseball bat, car, or jump, or hang...dead=dead.



Well, I now only have access to a PS3 & 360...Plan on buying a wii soon (lol, if I can ever find one available!) but will probably wait until some of the major RPG's come out like Dragon Quest & Tales, etc.

Anyhow, I'm so far behind in games to play that I'm not in a huge hurry (lol, haven't even gotten a chance to finish God of War II yet!)
