Looking into gun death rates only plays into the grabbers hands. It would be like comparing automobile deaths between the US and some primitive remote Amazon tribe. The fact that the US has more guns means there will be more deaths with guns than other grabbing countries. What's far more useful (and the way you should direct the conversation with a grabber) is comparing violent crime rates between the countries. England and Wales has almost 4 times the violent crime that the US has.
