You can ask any non American citizen about guns and the same answer will come up, you can ask the same to an citizen of the states and the same answer will come up but vice versa, 39 people died last year in the UK due to gun related crimes, 9500 people died in the states due to gun related crime, calculating the facts that USA = x3 size of UK so 39x 3 = 117, 117 gun related crimes to 9500...yeah guns don't kill
Edit - Sorry found out that its 1/5 population of USA so just add another 78 murders to that number already
