Are you stating that 35 gun deaths is not a relevant statistic? If I recall correctly, Morgan stated that GB was 1/5 of the population of the United States of America and he compared that number to the 11,000 gun deaths in the United States. What's 1/5 of 11,000? That's what he was trying to demonstrate. Jones actually tried to present some bullshit stats and then backed out from the gun deaths when they were outlawed (like those Chicago stats) to a blanket BS statement about "violent crimes".
The overwhelming majority of gun deaths in the USA are suicides, so unless the ratio of suicide were considerably lower, it would be irrelevant.
Unless you think "Well Johnny killed himself, but thank OBAMA he didn't use a gun to do it..."
I believe the per capita in the UK is actually higher than in America, isn't it?
Seriously, what the left needs to say is "We want gun bans so that the USA can be as safe as Mexico."
Per capita what, gun deaths? Look, I am PRO-SECOND AMENDMENT, I am anti a lot of regulation as well. I just don't like a lot of these loons who are allegedly "pro-Second Amendment". Unfortunately, they tend to be the loudest voices.
