"At some point as a country, we have to reckon with what happens. It's not enough to express sympathy. You don't see this kind of murder, on this scale, with this kind of frequency in other advanced countries on earth." - President Obama.

Does it matter? European crime statistics conveniently leave out eastern Europe entirely and everyone except the United States leaves out suicides and accidents when discussing gun violence. When the two compared, it is actually all gun deaths in the US versus only actual gun crimes in countries that are highly ordered in western Europe. This is common knowledge but is constantly overlooked, just like the alcohol issue killing 3-12 times as many people as guns do yet is applauded as a valuable cultural heritage.
