Guess which country has the most gun deaths, it's not the US

Hardly anyone compares developed countries to developing countries vis a vis for reasons that should be obvious.
America is unique among developed industrialized nations because of several factors, it being the most war loving nation, having the highest gini index (poor distribution of wealth), the largest non rehabilitative prison population and the least homogeneous ethnical makeup, plus it's history of the wild west, rebellion and revolution all contribute to it being the most homicidal. But there is another factor everyone ignores, that is for most countries, it is seen that as their homicidal rate goes down, their suicidal rate goes up, so that overall violence pretty much remains quite similar country by country, (take Australia, Canada or Japan, violence is almost exactly the same per capita as the US when homicide is added to suicide, year after year after year). From this one can easily draw the conclusion that this phenomenon has precious little to do with gun access, but that Americans are simply more pathologically inclined (re socially conditioned) to take out their aggression, inadequacies and failures on others than themselves.

"what is your major malfunction?!!"

Russia , South Africa etc do NOT have strict gun controls !

The homicide rate in Russia is higher, sure, but gun-related deaths are a small part of the homicide rate, and are lower in Russia than in the United States. The homicide rate in Ukraine was 4.3 per 100,000 in 2010 (comparatively, it was 4.5 per 100,000 in 2013 in the U.S., and it has steadily been going down in the U.S., so it was slightly higher in 2010). The rest of your examples are too idiotic to even discuss.

Have some pride, you absolute moron. You live in a developed, industrialized first-world country, and you're comparing yourself to...Central and Southern American countries, with all of their drug trade and other social upheaval, and then including that, plus numerous African countries, that all suffer from wide-spread poverty (which, in turn, makes people place less importance and value on their lives thus creating more crime; puts them in terrible situations where they don't have enough amenities and resources to live, thus creating more crime; and turns the police, and especially politicians who dictate social policy, more easy to buy off and on average much more corrupt due to also being poor and accepting bribes more easily, thus ALSO CREATING MORE CRIME)?

The homicide rate is not tied to the gun laws. HOMICIDE does not mean GUN-RELATED DEATH. Stop being thick and get that through your head. Any country that is as developed technologically, and infrastructure-wise, as the USA, and is by all intents and purposes as "modern" and "well-off" as the U.S. has a much lower gun-related deaths rate, and homicide rate. Nobody is claiming that the U.S. has the highest homicide rate of EVERY single country in the world, just because of their fear-mongering media, and fanatical gun culture, that would be silly. There are very few things that America is the worst in the entire world for. There's always some *beep* country in the world that does something worse than America, but that is not the point.

The point is that you're a first-world country, yet by most ratings regarding most socially progressive features, you're lagging way behind.

Good to see USA is above smoe developing countries 😱 It's still below some in its death rates by shooting though.
