Liberals are wanting gun control for everyone when they seem to be the biggest violators. And, 30,000 gun deaths each year???? How many were homicides? How many gun homicides were in Democratic controlled urban cities? How many gun homicides occurred in gun control cities like Chicago?
The key facts are (the guardian.com):
• The US has the highest gun ownership rate in the world - an average of 88 per 100 people. That puts it first in the world for gun ownership - and even the number two country, Yemen, has significantly fewer - 54.8 per 100 people
• But the US does not have the worst firearm murder rate - that prize belongs to Honduras, El Salvador and Jamaica. In fact, the US is number 28, with a rate of 2.97 per 100,000 people
• Puerto Rico tops the world's table for firearms murders as a percentage of all homicides - 94.8%. It's followed by Sierra Leone in Africa and Saint Kitts and Nevis in the Caribbean
