According to Wiki, the UK has a 0.25 firearms death rate per capita compared to the US figure of 10.30.


Our murder rate, including firearms homicides has dropped 50% in the last 20 years. You with all your great guns laws have made no progress.


If you are incapable of realizing that if your assumptions were correct there would dead bodies all over then you aren't very bright.
Of course there are no studies to prove it, doing a study on the effects of your delusions would be like doing a study on what the world would be like if Harry Potter was real.

And as I keep telling you.... compare the stats.
US gun deaths (and accidents) outrank every other first world country.

Since first world means aligned with the u.s., and not a euphimism for poor and impoverished, what is you point?

The concept of the First World originated during the Cold War, involving countries that were aligned with the United States, France and the United Kingdom. These countries were largely market economies and generally democracies.


Countries like s.koreaNicaraguaChiliIranare not exactly the poster child for democracies and market economies.


After the fall of the Soviet Union, the term "First World" arguably


I am pretty sure that morons argue but to what purpose? The definition was 1st world was the u.s. and it's possie. 2nd world was da kommies and their possie. What does your source over at wiki say about the third world and how it came about and how the west continually seeks to denigrate it by using the term third world to mean impoverished?


took on a new meaning, coming to be largely synonymous with developed countries.

As if russia and china are not developedLast I heard they had nukes and flushing toilets and what not.

You're a bit behind thompson....

And considering this thread is specifically about guns and restrictions, let's not include other non-gun figures.

Your premis that the number of firearms is indicative of firearms murders has already been shown to be faulty. Lets see if their is possibly some other cause that might account for the disparity of gun murders in the u.s. and the corresponding lack of such in countries with a higher rate of gun ownership.
