out of sheer curiosity, what are the murder stats regardless of means of killing?
1 u/Do_Not_Go_In_There Aug 05 '19 edited Aug 05 '19 For total homicides, US is 6.0, Canada is 1.76. In Canada of the 651 homicides in 2018, only 249 were from firearms, so firearm related homicides is 0.67 per 100,000 population. In the US firearm-related deaths are 4.5 per 100,000 population (in 2017), but varies with sex. Cause of death Both sexes Male Female Assault (homicide) 6.0 9.7 2.4 Assault (homicide) by discharge of firearms 4.5 7.6 1.4 https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=3510006801 https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr68/nvsr68_09-508.pdf
