  1. "Murder"? or "Death". Less than 600 people each year are killed by rifles in the US. More are killed by hands and blunt objects than by rifle. Suicide and accidental death account for 40% of the number. Higher death rate may not be related to guns, but population density and culture. Brazil and other countries in the Western Hemisphere have a drug cartel issue which also account for the "murder" rate. Australia banned guns but check out what they say now about it in some of the territories.

  2.  @Sundae_Times  Louisiana has a Democratic Gov and the City of New Orleans is Democratic with the highest gun homicide rate in the nation. If you look at it by city, which makes more sense demographically, it's pretty even.

  3. Wyoming had only 8 gun related homicides last year compared to my county which had almost 400, we are a one party-city, all Democrat for more than 15 years.

  8.  @JohnDoe-lx3dt  Suicide and accident by gun amounts to about 40%. His stats are correct, but don't take into account density and districts were gun violence occurs, which is overwhelmingly Democratic. Using Alaska as an example, that's a joke, and way of lying with statistics.

  9. Your comment is irrational. The US doesn't have more than a million Uyghurs in concentration camps.

  10. Less than 600 people are killed each year by rifles, 40% of gun deaths are by suicide or accident. More are killed by knives and blunt objects. These are FBI statistics. Guns should be regulated like autos, training, testing, licensing, and registration, not by emotion and political advantage.
