Murder rate in England for 16/17 was 723
Attempted murder same time period was 920
murders here, 15,852
These are total not just by firearm
England has around 66,000,000 people
We have over 323,000,000 people
Which means we have 5 times more people
Multiply by 5 is 3,615
If England had the same pop as we do, 16/17 3,615
This is way beyond gun control, adjusted numbers says we kill 5 times as many people than England.

Omc, stop your bullshit. So are you saying it lack of guns? More immigrants? What? Your stats are all out of whack. America has 375 million people in it, first of all. It has a gun thing that is nothing like England.

@rafferty Wtf! Facts!! Look it up before you make moronic comments.

@rafferty if population was the same between countries we would still kill 5 times more people.

Doesn't change the fact that all things being equal, we would still kill 5 times more people.

I'm glad you gave the statistics in a way that adjusts for population size. What this says about our country is quite sad. Do you have theories about why this is so?

@kenriley very good insight

It says if England had as many people as we do, we would still kill 5 times more people. What it tells me is gun control is very important, but we obviously have other issues that need to be addressed, and I would say they need to be determined. In answer to your question, I don't know, I just discovered this yesterday, I had no idea we were that bloodthirsty. I was looking at some numbers, because gun thugs are talking about gun control not working in other countries. I was going to compare all murder rates against gun related deaths, so I started with England, and here we are.

@kenriley good answer

One other thing theirs was 2 years and ours was one. I left that out 'cause I thought it would be confusing.
