1. Yeah, but jeez, look how low our murder rate is compared with the rest of the countries on the list
Oh, wait....

That's right.

:sarcasm:

We've got the highest murder rate of any country that makes guns on the list.

Weird, eh? Who would have thought that filling society with guns would INCREASE the number of incidents utilizing them? :eyes:

As the great Bill Hicks said:

"There is no connection between having a gun and shooting someone with it, and NOT having a gun and NOT shooting someone...and you'd be a fool and a communist to make the connection"
