I won’t deny the fact that gun violence happens here in the US, but statistics can be deceiving when you’re dealing with very small numbers. The article you linked gives a rate of 4.5 per 100,000 people in the US. That would put your country at around 0.13 per 100k.
Out of 100k, the difference between 4.5 and 0.13 is still exceptionally small. So small that your chances of being shot if you live here your entire life are negligible. If you visit for a week or two, your chances are statistically insignificant. If you look at homicides by any means, not just firearms, this becomes even closer.
So while what you say is accurate, you have to look at what it actually means. The United States is not “dangerous” by any stretch of the imagination. 35 multiplied by almost nothing is still almost nothing.
Says only nation where mass shootings occur daily.
You’re full of shit. Redefining “dangerous” doesn’t make things less dangerous. 35x as dangerous will always be 35x as dangerous. Drop your stupid, shitty numbers, reframe it as 1 in 1,000,000 vs. 1 in 22,000. That seem like enough of a difference? It should, if you’re sane. It won’t, if you’re a gun psychopath or just an argumentative asshole.
You’re using “the entire US”. Well, tourists don’t visit “the statistical entire US”. They go to cities, where the people and things are. If you’re too fucking stupid to understand there are places in the US that are DANGEROUS, that’s not my problem.
Please visit some of these dangerous places. Stay forever, I mean the odds are in your favor, right?
