According to these stats published, USA is way out and beyond almost
any other country in the world. Canada and other gun control
countries have much lower figures including and not including
suicide.


Brazil has much stricter gun laws than the U.S. and a murder rate
four times higher. Meanwhile Vermont has very loose gun laws (e.g.
concealed carry without a permit) and routinely is at the bottom of
U.S. crime rates. Obviously things other than gun laws are behind
violent crime rates. If you want to bring down violent crime, do
something about education, poverty and a booming trade in street
drugs, that way you'll actually accomplish something. But disarming
people who are extremely unlikely to ever commit a serious crime
isn't going to accomplish much at all.


Preach it!
