However, i'm not sure if these sites are correct. But, the U.S. is 10 in the world of gun violent deaths per capita. However not in the top 37 in homocide per capita. This obviously supports that people are the problem not the guns. However there's no way to prove whether or not banning guns would decrease homocide rate even further. Letting the government take away freedoms is a slippery slope. Also the money could be spent = on something more worthwhile, or not spent, but the government likes spending money.

lol? according to the first table the USA has 3.6 gun related homicides per 100k people, which is equal to 36 per 1million people

that alone would mean they are at #11 in the second list


awe bugger someone find correct data! this is best information if found. Rather than babbling back and forth. I know the gun murder rate in general is higher per capita than any "first world country" however, finding a reliable murder rate. AHHH!
