e/ countries that are still lower murder rate than the us include developed world flagships like : rwanda, niger, north korea, iran, , cuba, turkey, thailand, egypt, syria, sri lanka, myanmar, jordan etc etc.
Now these stats are from mixed dates, and some of this countries probably have reporting problems but you get the point. 94/219 is no place for a developed nation that trumpts its self as the greatest country in the world.
TBH im dispappointed even in canadas score at 158 still 1.68/100,000 are murdered each year, uk is under 1.

I’ve never been on reddit. To be honest no idea how to use it and not interested. I am however, on a few political forums.
If you want to talk about Stanley cups (5 vs 1) conference championship (7 vs 3) president trophies (2 vs 2) division champions (9 vs 6) then yea, oilers are forever better than the flames, and you’re just going to have to get used to that.
What I’m saying in what I posted is that gun control affects law abiding citizens and has very little to do with criminals who like nearin points out, will get guns from somewhere else.
I bet you are behind Trudeau and his new gun control he wants to bring in and how it’s just pandering to the masses due to the current state of the states
Those guns are still in the country because there is a strong gun industry, if there were less demand for legal guns domestically it would reduce both legal and illegal guns in circulation. besides most of the school shooting events have been with legally owned weapons that were stolen from parents.
When i call for gun control im not saying no guns anywhere ever. i'm saying there is no reason for certain types of guns, and we need stricter saftey laws, Like hacing to have your gun in a locked cabinet with ammo and gun seperate. certain weapon types needing to be stored in a cage at a range and not allowed off range. etc shit like that.
Im not going after Koj's right to go hunt a buck with a regular ol bolt action hunting rifle that he locks away and takes out 4 times a year to go hunting in bush with proper permits. (i dont even know that koj hunts but i figured probably) i'm talking about automatic (or modded to near automatic) assault rifles and handguns sitting loaded in desk drawers.
there are common sense things that can be done to improve gun laws in the states. that would not be overly invasive to most gun owners
