    I love how you put a bunch of words in my mouth that I never said just to defend yourself.

      I didn’t.

      And the facts I have you spoke for themselves.

      Come on. Where’s your evidence of Asia and Africa having gin problems? Of kids with machine guns?

          Gotta give you credit, it was very clever of you to link to an article without any real stats, but which makes it sound really rife.

          It was a good try, but no.

          United States: 11 gun deaths per 100k.

          South Africa: 6 gun deaths per 100k.

          South Africa is the most violent place in Africa by far, and isn’t representative of Africa at all, and still has a gun homicide rate that’s roughly half of the US.
