ALL of the countries above the USA have 100% gun BANS. I picked the first two, just to check your claim...and as I suspected, your statement is not true... what's the source of your illustrious list (NK?) Al

Hi Taro; Obviously your list of countries with high murder rates and "100% gun bans" is defective. I know that Mexico allows the private ownership of guns. You can learn this fact by a quick google search. On the other hand, I think it's true that most of those countries have more restrictive gun laws than the US and I am pretty sure that the US has a lot more privately owned guns per capita. I think it would make a better graphic if you changed it over to be about guns per capita versus murder rate. -- Carl
