What irritates me most about you and i-node is you never try to see the truth, all you ever do is defend the right wing myths.

Why? Is the truth to hard to understand or face?

Why did you not address Japan or England.

And you are wrong about Australia, they had significantly significant success compared to the US.

We are the murder Captiol of the world because of all the guns; and highest incarceration rate in the world

The US is a hell hole because of right wing crazy people.

Al you post is nonsense. Constantly. Cheery picked nonsense.

<,Japan has few murders but a lot of suicides. Its different than the US in many ways.

Comparing more similar entities like US states with different laws or European countries with different laws, there is no statistically significant trend between gun control and murder rates. Depending on exactly what criteria you look at you can get a very small "more guns less murder" result, or a very small "more guns more murder" result but neither strong enough to be statistically significant.

Same with Australia.


Australia greatly increased gun control, but it appears they only got a fraction of the guns away from private individuals, the rest just becoming illegal guns. There murder rate did go down since then but the US murder rate has gone down more, while we have been adding guns.
