Gun deaths per 100,000 people in 2011.

US - 9.2
UK - 0.25
Japan - 0.07

You know why this is bullshit, if I'm murdered, I don't care how it happens. Do you think that someone stabbed to death's final thought is "Thank goodness this isn't a gun!"

"Gun deaths" or "Gun Murder" is an imaginary statistic. You know what happened when the UK enacted the 68 fire arms act? The murder rate went up and rose through the next three decades. At least they weren't being killed by guns though.
