Use relative statistics when talking about this issue, dont white wash it like politicians in the press.

I didn't white wash anything. The point is that even though the US has the highest number of guns per capita of any country, we rank 24th over in murders per capita, well behind countries that have far fewer guns per capita.
That clearly proves that a high ratio of guns are not the problem, something that bugalugs wrongly claimed in another 'gun' thread.
