I think I heard the dumbest reason for why other country's have less gun deaths. [View all]

Apparently a friend of mine said the reason why other countries have less gun deaths is because of better healthcare and better government than because the restriction/ban of guns. When I confronted him he said he read things that claimed that and some documentary proved that. He also said if we got rid of guns people would be using knives to kill people.

I really dont understand how someone could think that. Anyone else hear something stupid as to why other countries have less gun deaths thats not because the restriction of them.

P.S I apologize if I posted this in the wrong section.
