There was nothing to "get ahead" of. I think it's hard to argue that if the US made a serious effort in the 60s to curb it that the impact wouldn't have been felt today. We're talking 390+ million guns owned by civilians in the US now. Zero_Slash posted... "Per capita" doesn't matter in anything death-related. Whether it's guns or anything else.

Yes, big cities are more dangerous than rural areas. All this shows is that you don't know how statistics work. Comparing by raw numbers is useless since we all know California has a significantly higher population count than Alabama or Wyoming. What actually matters is how much more likely you are to be a victim of gun violence living in Cali versus Alabama, and the data overwhelmingly shows you are significantly more likely to get shot and killed in Alabama versus California. That would suggest that stricter gun laws are actually effective in lowering firearm death rates. Your move. --- I have nothing else to say ... Copied to Clipboard!

Like if I compare US and Australia to almost anything I have to take the population difference into account right? It's the same for a US small town and a major US city.
