Default Re: Another Mass Shooting

Which countries are you referring to so we can analyze?

The US and Yemen are #1 and #2 in private citizen gun ownership, and tied in murder rate. I don't think anybody is saying guns are the only problem...and if they are that's a problem in itself. Obviously poverty and instability are a factor in murder rates (hence Africa, S. America, etc are the highest rates).

The US is a first world country and has a murder rate well above all other first world countries, and is number 1 in gun ownership. Correlation is there.
