I too am glad someone pointed that out. It is the perfect example of conservatives spinning the evidence for their own motives.

Europe and EU include: Latvia, lithuania, estonia, albania, estonia, moldova...and so on
If you want to say we should be no better than a conglomerate of those countries and others, like France and germany, poland, and switzerland, then maybe we should start identifying who these dangerous "states" are within our own country.

Then we can start increasing gun control in those area...... OH WAIT
Thats what we are already doing!!!

 

I would like response to this. It's about the comparison of europe vs US murder rates, Europe being at like 5.6 and US at 5.8. The idea someone brought up was that Europe has less gun violence but the murder rate is still high.

You should check that wiki page you posted and look up the rates of european countries like the ones I mentioned which you feel are an adequate comparison to the United States themselves.

 

So you want to cherry pick the countries with gun control that have low murder rates, and then say "look, get rid of the guns and murder will go down".

Sorry, it doesn't work that way.
