Data shows the only countries with higher gun deaths per capita than the US are all central and parts of South America. E.g., India's per capita gun death rate is 0.56 vs 4.12 in the US. permalink fedilink source parent [–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) You literally made that up. It's the US and a few unstable countries in South America. South Africa, one of the highest homicide rate countries in the world, with a murder rate 6.5x higher than the US, has half the gun homicide rate of the US. India has has 1 gun homicide per 100k. The US has 11 per 100k. But yeah. Keep telling us how everywhere outside of Europe and Australia is like this. It's BS. permalink fedilink source parent [+] tsonfeir@lemm.ee -7 points 2 years ago (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] KISSmyOS@feddit.de 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) Why are only English-speaking countries relevant?
