MODERATORS
So, in a little over a year everyone in the USA will be shot? 875K people are shot daily?
Yea I could believe the other stats but there's no way one person out of 400 is being shot every day.
Also, over 20% of the population is illiterate? I don't buy it
It's about 26k total homicides per year, about half are firearms, a huge majority of those are handguns.
So 875k people in the US are shot to death roughly every 67 years.
