Here is a partial list of murders per 100,000 people. This takes in ALL murder, not jsut guns. Note the nations with strict gun control all have higher murder rates than than the US. Also note that the US is LOWER than the world average.
South Africa 45

Swaziland 88

Botswana 20

Zimbabwe 18

Colombia 41

Sudan 31

Holland 15

Lebanon 13

Sri Lanka 12

Russia 11

USA 5.2

Germany 4

UK 2

International Average 5,5

Still our murder rate is TOO high, but Germany's is not to far behind, and this is one of the nations that MOORE Champions. Also you have to note that Englands is on an upward trend, four years in a row, while the US is on a downward trend. IT was 5.6 as of two years ago. Not much but any lowering of that number is welcome. I am off to look for Canada's
