Some data: In the US, there are about 3.45 homicides with firearms per 100,000 population per year. In Germany (where I live), this figure is 0.19, that is roughly factor 18.

Let's not bring logic and facts into an argument about guns with Americans.

The simple fact is that Americans are exceptional, so anything that happens outside the US is irrelevant.

I would counter that you need to go back 70 years to see how well a disarmed German population.

How well what? And why does one have to go back? Compare now to now.
