    You aren’t counting the number of dead. Only the acts using a specific tool. Its a metric about the tool, not about deaths. And besides, violence counts more than deaths.

    People are needlessly dying. But gun control will not solve that. Focus on why people are killing themselves.

      That’s exactly what I am doing. I quoted the number of dead per capita.

      “No way to stop this says only country where this regularly happens.”

      Most countries solve this with gun control.

        Specifically gun murders per capita. Because its not about murder, its about guns. If it was about murder, youd say murder.

        Most countries solve this by not have massive drug and gang problems.

          And your point is?

          Most countries solve this by not have massive drug and gang problems.
