Intentionally misleading propaganda.
The reason it misses out Russia is that it has no-data. Presumably Russia aren't very forth coming on that.
How would you conclude that I was saying guns don't mke it easier to kill people off of that? What I'm saying is exactly what I said, that chart is useless propghanda trying to make one stat look like another one.
Are you saying that it's not doing that?

Which still isn't as good as a gun

2.How does that make it worse
3. You short on a case here
Russia has three times the US murder rate. But my point is that it's an intentionally misleading chart. Trying to confuse the gun violence stat with the homocide one. Which is the only relevant stat with f you are trying to make the case that control will lead to less homocides.
Which is the argument that I'm interested in. Unfortunately nobody seems to be even interested in that discussion, and instead just post a bunch of propaganda like that stupid chart.

You know, I have Canadian relatives and one Canadian acquaintance. I don't understand the stereotype. They're all assholes. One of them is a bible-thumper with a hair across her ass.
On a more important note, that sucks. I hope everyone who survived recovers.
Two people in s not much of an accurate survey size. I've slept with more Canadians than that.
