Does Banning Guns Increase The Murder Rate?

“After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn’t do it.”
– William S. Burroughs.

With the gun debate raging in the United States, and crime proliferating rapidly in The Bahamas, the following statistics provided by the World Health Organization are an eye-opener.

The actual statistics regarding the number of murders per 100,000 citizens in countries around the world  goes against what many people believe.

The gun-happy United States ranks at the bottom of the list, below all the countries that have gun bans for private citizens.

BTW:  The Bahamas ranks number 19 out of over 100 countries.
