I'm guessing it was saying we have more gun related murders, not deaths
in general. Some countries are in a constant state of warfare and I
would expect their death rate by guns would be higher.

So far as I know the US is the only country that considers gun
ownership to be a 'right.' And we seem quite willing to die for that
right.

Hi Albert-
I was born and raised in Saint John, NB, Canada but have lived in the
US since 1964 and yet I consider myself a world citizen rather than
Canadian because of being a Baha'i and the fact we are one humankind
and one religion of God. The earth indeed is one country if we only
realized it.

God bless,
doug
