    They are safe because they have a different mindset about crime, about guns, about society, everything really, and far, far less greed. The average person in the Caribbean outside of Jamaica does not act entitled.

    All of Jamaica is a Horror Show. Over 1,000 Police Officers have been killed in Jamaica since 1996. The World's highest ratio of Police Death per capita, and about 1,000 times above the World's average Police violent death statistic.

    pretty interesting

    USA number 1 in gun ownership, number 28 in gun homocide


    for the numbers of gun homicides are they calculating the total of how many total deaths there are or by the percentage of total gun homicides compared to the general population of that country?

    Wow great we are safer than Brazil, Columbia, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, etc when it comes to gun murder. What an illuminating video. I've learned so much. "worth my time" defined. thanks. (Sarcasm)

    Edit: a quick google search found this:

    Anguilla
    Argentina
    Bahamas
    Barbados
    Belize
    Brazil
    Columbia
    Costa Rica
    Dominican Republic
    Ecuador
    El Salvador
    Guatemala
    Honduras
    Guyana
    Jamaica
    Mexico
    Nicaragua
    Panama
    Paraguay
    Philipines
    Puerto Rico
    St Kitts
    St Vincent
    South Africa
    Trinidad & Tobago
    Venezuela
    Zimbabwe

    Apparently all these countries (16 of which have populations under 500,000) are worthy of comparing to the US if you are looking to illuminate gun statistics in a favourable light for the US.

    we AREN'T all gun nuts...compared to Zimbabwe!

    Calling better than Columbia in this regard a "win" is hilariously sad.

    England - 53 Milliion


    Brasil - 197 Million Plus
    Mexico - 113 Million - largest Spanish speaking nation in the World.
    Argentina - 41 million
    South Africa - 51 Million

    Well he's sort of 50% right. Might be more like 25%.

    I'm gonna guess he's gonna say 51 is close enough to 53. Either way, all it proves is that population has little to do with gun violence.
