...say lol or something next time you sillyhead, I can't tell whether you're serious or not. XD

I'm afraid a "lol" at the end of my comment would have negated the humor. It was just a risk I had to take Laughing

Annual homicide rate for firearms

Because the U.S. is so big, it's better to compare the frequency of firearm homicides per capita, usually expressed as firearm homicides per 100,000 in national population.

According to the U.N., the U.S. had 3.0 firearm homicides per 100,000 in population in 2009. But there were 14 other nations that had higher rates in 2009, primarily in Latin America and the Caribbean: Honduras (57.6), Jamaica (47.2), St. Kitts and Nevis (44.4), Venezuela (39.0), Guatemala (38.5), Colombia (28.1), Trinidad & Tobago (27.3), Panama (19.3), Dominican Republic (16.9), Bahamas (15.4), Belize (15.4), Mexico (7.9), Paraguay (7.3) and Nicaragua (5.9). Three other nations had higher rates in 2008: El Salvador (39.9), Brazil (18.1) and Ecuador (12.7).

So the U.S. doesn’t rank no. 1 when firearm homicides are adjusted for population.

Yes, but the US does have the highest firearm homicide rate per capita of any first- or second-world country, which is what I think people actually say.

Two more people shot dead in the park near my apartment over the weekend. Gun violence in NYC seems to have gone up quite a bit this year. Not anywhere near Detroit or Chicago levels but it's a bit worrying. I assume a majority of the guns used in the shootings were obtained illegally, since we have rather strict gun laws here.
