Thriving economically, the best-educated populace in Europe has, in recent years, legalized abortion, eliminated gender discrimination in marriage contracts - both via public referenda - and elected a gay prime minister, all expressions of enlightened public sentiment. (A 2015 survey indicated that 87% cent of Irish people agree that gay, lesbian and bisexual people should have the same rights as heterosexual people.)

All persons resident in Ireland are entitled to receive health care through the public health care system, and all maternity services and child care up to the age of six years are provided free of charge.

The 2022 Human Development Index from the UN places Ireland second-highest in the world for quality of life, which is based on health, education and income in each country. The Republic is now second only to Norway, which has been deemed the best country in the world for quality of life.

Venezuela has all those things, yet their gun death per 100k are three fold that of the US and more similar demographics. Go figger.
 
IDK. With IRA II seemingly trying to get life back, both sides of the Irish border may be in for a hurting. Nationalism is a tricky business with Ireland. Recently they banned some northern irish athletes from the commonwealth games because they had competed for the republic in the past despite the Good Friday Accords allowing athletes from Northern Ireland to compete for either Ireland or the UK.

Boris Johnson's threats as far as Brexit may also torpedo the economies in both places if he ever pulls the trigger.

Venezuela's gun death has a connection to the US, in a similar way that Iraq's and Afghanistan's has too.

The number of "gun deaths" says nothing about how advanced a nation or society is. What a load.
