Britain is a non-member of the Schengen area, and an island, making gun smuggling more difficult than in France. Brazil has a far higher per capita homicide rate than the US overall. But as a bonus, and the US is the source of Latin America's guns.

Now let's talk about how other countries were able to successfully create a market with a combination of regulation and gun buy-backs, thereby reduce their rates of mass-shootings, gun suicides, and gun violence overall.

Again, I’m not asking about why there’s a different gun-ownership rate in France and England. I’m asking why their gun-homicide rate is nearly identitical despite the gun-ownership disparity. And no, Brazil’s guns aren’t from here. https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/7831298 …pic.twitter.com/yADzL3XTSC

Gun deaths, from all causes, are much higher per capital than in the UK. The likely reason—there are far more guns per capital in France. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_firearm-related_death_rate …

That includes suicides. Studies show removing the implement used to commit suicide doesn’t reduce that rate. And if you want to ban guns to solve suicides, you’d be pushing to ban revolvers, not rifles. Don’t move the goalposts. From The Guardian:pic.twitter.com/a30afWi33n

“Studies show removing the implement used to commit suicide doesn’t reduce that rate.“ Show me a study. A link. I’ve read suicide studies recently. Def not what they said. But I’ll check out your link.

This isn't the study I had read previously, but it's on the point anyway: Australia's suicide rate has dropped largely because they implemented many changes, but they found the suicide rate by hanging increased anyway, while it dropped using firearms.https://www.mja.com.au/journal/2010/192/8/suicide-australia-meta-analysis-rates-and-methods-suicide-between-1988-and-2007 …

Dude. You just linked to a study proving an overall decline in suicides, correlated with a huge reduction in gun suicides. It shows that once people didn’t have a gun to use on an impulse, many people lived. What exactly are you fighting for here? Easier suicide?pic.twitter.com/1sLQyPagrz

Nice cherrypicking. It says “coincides”. If you don’t know what that word means, look it up. And read all the *other* things they did at that time that had nothing to do with suicide methods.
