In 2004, guns killed:
56 people in Australia
184 people in Canada
73 people in England and Wales
5 people in New Zealand
37 people in Sweden
and
11,344 people in the United States.
Yes, that's right: in the United States the firearm homicide rate was thirty to forty times the firearm homicide rate of the other five countries, which, unsurprisingly, have significantly stronger gun-control policies than the United States.
As an example, in World Report on Violence and Health (2004), the World Health Organization stated that more than 90% all violence-related deaths occur in poorer countries. Yet the United States continues to remain in the bottom of the heap for both number of homicides and overall homicide rates.
