Indeed, it depends on what your definition of "is" is. If you choose a very
narrow category ("gun deaths in richest nations in 1994") then you can
prove that America has a big problem with violence, when the reality is
very different. Anti-gun logic is like that, which is why we despise it
so much; this article was clearly written to push an anti-gun agenda, not
to tell us anything useful.
