They are perfectly correlated (literally 100%) while gun ownership is not at all correlated.

Look at France and England. France = 5x the gun ownership rate of England, but almost identical gun-homicide rates. Because they have very similar socioeconomics. It's plain as day. Just open your mind and look.

That is NOT why France has the same gun homicide rates as the UK. I invite you o research gun laws in France versus those in the US. By continually defending your position that gun laws play little to no role in reducing gun homicides & only socio-economic factors do is misguided

We're talking about France and England, not France and the US. How about this? I'll give you the link below to my source on those numbers... 1/2

They're below. Now, please show me ANY COUNTRY ON THE PLANET (outside of places where we can't trust the government numbers such as NK and China) with worse socioeconomics than the US and less gun homicides. Deal? I'll wait here. https://amp.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2012/jul/22/gun-homicides-ownership-world-list … 2/2

Take all the time you need. I went through it already. I know the result.

Okay first caveat when reviewing these stats: “With less than 5% of the world’s population, the United States is home to roughly 35–50 per cent of the world’s civilian-owned guns, heavily skewing the global geography of firearms and any relative comparison”

Yep. And if gun ownership was the *cause* of gun homicides, we'd have an equivalent number of gun homicides as compared to the rest of the world. But again, I'm looking for any country with worse socioeconomics and a lower gun-homicide rate. Those are the two stats.

So that is your takeaway from this information? I am assuming you look at the gun homicide rate of 2.97 per 100,000 people in the US which is very low in comparison to the number of guns owned in the US.

Again, I'm not talking about ownership rate *at all*. I'm asking for one single country with worse socioeconomics than the US but a better gun-homicide rate. Just one.
