    Media bias is one thing for sure, but there are data showing that gun related death are much higher in the USA than whole of Europe (except, well… Ukraine).

    Gun related death per 100k inhabitants, in 2019: USA=10, Netherlands=0.5. Gun deaths by country - WorldPopulationReview.com

      I’m not arguing that, especially because that figure includes suicides.

      I’ve noticed that (especially on Lemmy) people outside the US think we’re dodging bullets as we go about our days. Really, everybody is just doing their own thing and minding their own business.
