Wrong, I looked up the first country on your list and they do not have 100 percent gun ban. Try again. Thread is a failure

[LostInHouston]

So glad to see we're doing better than the who's who of war torn, 3rd world countries!

[rw47]

Sorry dude but not all those countries have gun bans. Plenty of them do, but not all.

[VTHokieFan]

Yehhhhh South Africa doesn't have a gun ban. But it's good to see their murder rate coming down. Used to be in the 50s

[Norgy]

Norway - murder rate 0.6 according to latest figures I can find. 36,000 gun owners per 100,000 people, half a million unregistered shotguns distributed among scarcely 5 million people in addition to 1.4 million registered firearms...welcome to socialist gun nut paradise

[ellemint]

The Congo has a gun ban ? ! FAIL

Norway is also over 98% white.

Where's a link to the information?

I did find USA 2010 data from the CDC:

All homicides

• Number of deaths: 16,259
• Deaths per 100,000 population: 5.3

Firearm homicides

• Number of deaths: 11,078
• Deaths per 100,000 population: 3.6

There's huge swaths of the US that are very safe. Which only makes the situations in some of our inner cities that much more unacceptable.
