Denver police have arrested a 13-year-old boy accused of fatally shooting a man whose leg was blocking the aisle on a public bus.

      I didn’t.

      And the facts I gave you spoke for themselves. Your argument practically mocks itself.

      Come on. Where’s your evidence of Asia and Africa having gun problems? Of kids with machine guns?

          Gotta give you credit, it was very clever of you to link to an article without any real stats, but which makes it sound really rife.

          It was a good try, but no.

          United States: 11 gun deaths per 100k.

          South Africa: 6 gun deaths per 100k.

          South Africa is the most violent place in Africa by far, and isn’t representative of Africa at all, and still has a gun homicide rate that’s roughly half of the US.

              Why are you putting words in my mouth?

              You posted an article with no real stats, and you cherrypicked one of the most violent countries on the planet.

              I provided real stats to compare them and still the US’s rate was almost twice as high!

              I don’t think you understand what the “ok boomer” meme is.

                  Never said it wasn’t rife. I said you cherrypicking possibly the most violent country out of all Africa and Asia, but making sure to pick an article where it didn’t actually tell you the gun homicide rate (because it’s much lower than the US’s), was a laughable move.

                  It is rife. It’s just over half the US’s gun homicide rate, which is huge.

                  What part of this aren’t you getting? Is there something you’d like explained to you? Would it help if I tried to use fewer, shorter words?
