No you didn't, you used cherry picked data that was already available to you. UNDAC used OEDC membership as criteria because it fit their mold, then they specifically removed mexico because it didn't fit.
No, we were clearly discussing gun crime and death by gun crime. This entire chain...

Cherry picking is deciding for your own purposes which countries can and cannot be compared. And you missed the point completely.
Conveniently lumping all firearm fatalities together in that study? Suicides, shot by the police, justified self defense shootings(Which happen daily)...
No doubt
But the US is wholly unable to combat contraband, so it doesn't really matter, guns will flow here as long as a demand exists.
The far right wingers you are mocking, do not contribute to our gun problem. Yes those people are a problem, but lets not pin our crime culture on them...
So you think if we just made a law that said you need permission to take your gun out of the safe in the US, that would do it? That's what works over there right? Or maybe, just maybe their society and culture has other things figured out yet that we haven't.
Because saying "Don't do that"...
No country in that list is broadly comparable to the US.
If we take the homicide stats from less than 5 US cities out of our countries homicide rate, we can see instantly that 99.9% of the US is far safer than most of Europe.
Why is that? Guns increase crime, and there are more guns in rural...
Source for the bold? I was in Switzerland last Oct. and saw a few people with guns cased on trains, I could see people target shooting from the train window at one point.
I think you just made that up, or it's a restriction on only the gov issue weapon.
Many other countries on that UNDAC chart have low GDPs, what the standard? What countries can and can't we use in this comparison?
Qatar has a really high GDP per capita, very tight gun controls, and high homicide.
Switzerland has a high GDP per capita, very high gun ownership compared to the...
That's false. Similar weapons were picked for standard duty engagement and you are correct that they are exceptionally capable as such. But most armies have multiple weapons for a host of scenarios.
From an elevated position 400+ yards away, a single shooter, spraying at random with a high...
He wouldn't even had to train, he had walls of people for targets.
No I'm simply pointing out that gun ownership does not have a strong violent crime correlation. Are we really going to sit here and assert that gun ownership causes us to have 2-3 times increase in homicides, there are no other...
With the size of the crowd, the position he had, and the time he had; even the worst shooter in the world could have fired over 60 high percentage shots from a bolt action with 10 rounds mags in under 5 min.
It is a blessing he choose the erratic spray and pray method.
Based solely on surveys, something most gun owners actively lie on. With the amount of NICS checks, I find this very hard to believe.
How many of those countries include suicides in their homicide rates? Which country in that list has the most surface area and the least dense populous? Do...
Yea, I'm guessing you hold this opinion about anyone who disagrees with you. But carry on, you democrats are republicans seem to have everything running super smooth...
