That is the premise for my next screenplay.“Shelter in place” at HKGC!
didnt know either - used to just go to revolucion street as a grom w/ homemade fake ids and get into the strip clubs on college night. thought that was it for TJ, last time i was in ensenada our homie gave us a proper tour of TJ before we headed home. its huge and there are some pretty nice areas and homesI didnt know TJ was such a big city. I thought it was a few ramshackle bad stucco bidgs and a bunch of street vendors. I havent been there for 48 yrs.
You said gun murders then post stats for total gun deaths.
His stats are for all gun deaths but his initial claim was gun murders and the US is way below mexico for gun murders. So his post is even more worthless than your what your analysis points to.TJ is home to approx. 1.5 million people.
Bertrand's stats are for total deaths not per capita deaths. Mexico's total population is 130-150 million vs 330 million or so for the US. So, based on per capita deaths by firearm, Mexico out paces the US by a decent margin.
Laughable stats. To better understand you might try to get a stat on how many people are missing (disappeared).His stats are for all gun deaths but his initial claim was gun murders and the US is way below mexico for gun murders. So his post is even more worthless than your what your analysis points to.
They are counting suicides in “violent gun deaths”.Looks like Central America has a pretty strong lock on the gun homicides per capita rates, but the US has way more per capita than any of the other "high-income" countries with at least 10 million residents.
On gun violence, the United States is an outlier | The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation
When we look exclusively at high-income countries and territories with populations of 10 million or more, the US ranks first for its high levels of gun violence.www.healthdata.org
Having a hard time confirming your numbers though Duffy. From what I have seen the U.S. appears to be much higher that 60th overall. Maybe more like 16th?
Gun violence deaths: how the U.S. compares with the rest of the world
The grim news of mass shootings in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, has again cast a spotlight on the gun violence death rate in the U.S., which is higher than much of the world.www.npr.org
Edit: This article gets a bit closer and talks about the US being 30th overall in 2016: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/theres-a-new-global-ranking-of-gun-deaths-heres-where-the-u-s-stands

Literally not a single western developed nation on that list, ahead or below US.

No, I'm pointing at the obvious flaw with Duffy's reasoning.Is that an admission that your earlier claim was chicken fried dogshit?

Post more tacos and less failed gotchas.
Gun deaths.Your claim was mexico vs the US.
Mexico #21
US #61
Demonstrably false.Our overall (all types of murder tools used) murder rate isn’t really that much different than other western countries.
Also, it isn’t the “gun turds” you have in your head that are committing these crimes. It’s primarily inner city gang violence.
If you remove all guns there’s be no gun murders.
If you removed a certain 13% of the population (actually just a small percent of the 13%) you cut the overall US murder rate in half.
He'll never be happy unless all guns are goneIf we had no guns there’s be no gun murders. Duh.
