Perhaps more stunningly, about a third of them occurred in two countries: Brazil and the United States. [More]Perhaps even more stunning than that is Brazil's gun laws are "categorised as restrictive" with "private possession of handguns (pistols and revolvers) ... prohibited, with only narrow exemptions..."

That ought to please your masters from the same parent conglomerate that owns Field & Stream...

Guess which country also leads the pack in the number of deaths due to medical error?
ReplyDeleteBecause we have more people, more doctors, and more hospitals. Just like we have more guns.
So duh. Popular Logic you ain’t.
Gloria: Did you know that 65% of the people murdered in the last 10 years were killed by handguns?
Archie: Would it make you feel any better, little girl, if they was pushed outta winnders?
Wait - what? Over 200,000 in 2016, and 1/3 (65-70,000) occurred in two countries, one of which was the US? Sorry - last I checked there are ~ 30,000 deaths per year in the USA in which a firearm of any sort was used, and two-thirds of that figure was suicide. Pop-Sci can't do simple math?
