The USA must be the safest country in the world? Is that your claim?

A Canadian should be aware of the example of neighboring cities of Detroit and Windsor
Tortured and misrepresented statistics are not "facts". 

For example, the Kennesaw effort has demonstrated that widely owned firearms do not prevent crime. If the prevalence of firearms in Kennesaw actually did increase in the form of loaded handguns in households, what do you think happened to the accidental injury and domestic violence rates?

Apparently that simple concept cannot be understood by gun nuts so they relentlessly try to equate firearms with vehicles, knives, stairs, swimming pools, or bananas.

Nice opinion which you are free to have. Why?  well because of the second amendment.  Your opinion has no backup other than emotion. may want to espouse elsewhere. we see you .....

If by backup you mean evidence to support the idea that firearm prevalence is a net negative for American society? That is well proven.

The Gun Facts "arguments" are pure nonsense. They purport to disprove "myths" by formulating mythical position statements that are not part of the science of public health. Purely strawman arguments. The Gun Fact statements attempt to "disprove" myths by citing opinion and anecdote.

Bad reasoning and worse citation evidence.
