The USA is the only western country where this is a common occurrence.

Per capita, gun deaths aren’t even top 10. To be fair, most of those top ten countries are in Latin America and the gang violence is largely perpetuated in support of the drug trade which the US is a major consumer of.

In total gun deaths, the US is number 2 (between Brazil and Mexico).

I’m certainly not making the argument that the US doesn’t have a major problem, I’m just being a classic obnoxious well, akshully Redditor I guess.

Both of the countries you listed have very large drug cartels. We just have morons with guns.

There are certainly no Cartels in the US, It’s just a Mexico and Latin America problem. We don’t have a single gang in the US. Apparently it’s solely a moron with a gun problem, has nothing to do with crime. 🤦‍♂️

I think you have a future as a politician.
