America is not even in the top 20 of the world`s `murder capitals``, many countries have way more murders per ca-pita and many have gun control.
I live in Canada it is hard to get a gun permit down here for even a rifle and nearly impossible for a hand gun unless your field requires it, we have the strictest gun laws and for a while they were handing out 5 years in jail if you got caught with a gun and an additional year per bullet. Now every single murder that happened here with a gun (nearly 100 per year) happened by people that obtained guns in the black market so gun control means absolutely nothing.
I can get all kinds of guns on the black market including AK`s, it is not hard, anyone can. Gun control or not if someone wants to kill someone they will and guns are at every corner anywhere anyway.
