None of those countries near America is deem developed the only one close kinda has become third world outsides of its two major city centers through bad governance.

It is, in fact, orders of magnitude worse than any comparable country and any argument stating otherwise is either deeply ignorant or in bad faith.

An order of magnitude means up to 10 times more. You don’t have any data to suggests it’s 10 times less prevalent in Europe.

So per million France which has the highest rate at 6 in 22 years with a population of 66.7 million 66.7/6 = 11.1166 the us with a population 342 million 109 in the same time span 342/109 =3.138 for context lower number = bad

342 million for America

Or Germany with 83.6 million ppl 83.6/5=16.72

Or Uk 68.3 million 68.3/2=34.15

The reason I’m not using examples like that is for the fact they have such a small population in each it’s like saying Liechtenstein would be the highest mass shootings were committed there if one happened as they’d clock in with a 0.0405

Examples like that being small populations

Well tbh Scandinavia is about as bad at 22 million with 4 incidents for 4.75. It’s a small sample size though

That’s the issue is the fact you get one case in one of those nations like the Liechtenstein example where if it happens once in a nation like that they’d sky rocket

Anonymous OP 6w

Well I used Scandinavia collectively for that reason. I also used the belief but it’s higher than the us

You are also adding Finland and Norway which are two European countries with some of the least strict gun laws in Europe with Norway I think having the second highest gun per person capita outside the USA

Norway is known for having quite strict gun laws though

Small difference they aren’t second but 17th with Finland being 10th

To be honest I also saw a different data set in the past which seemed to suggest very different results let me see if I can find it.

2nd vs 17th seems like a significant difference

Anonymous canesfan 6w

I’m aware and I made the correction but yeah even then they are two of the highest gun owning states in Europe overall

3

Anonymous OP 6w

It looks like they do have more guns than the European average. The overall homocide rates are not higher than the rest of Europe though, I don’t know what to make of that fact

Anonymous canesfan 6w

I’m not for banning all guns personally just having it regulated in a way where you don’t have mass shootings often Norway is a good example of this actually having a decently high gun rate ownership and not having issues like the USA does
