The US has a lot of guns, and it has a bunch of violent crime, but those two are not correlated.
I don't need to because this statement is laughable.
Our review of the academic literature found that a broad array of evidence indicates that gun availability is a risk factor for homicide, both in the United States and across high-income countries. Case-control studies, ecological time-series and cross-sectional studies indicate that in homes, cities, states and regions in the U.S., where there are more guns, both men and women are at a higher risk for homicide, particularly firearm homicide.
So in your opinion it is a GIANT coincidence that countries with high homicide rates also generally have relaxed gun laws?
