Ahh, yes. Because there’s absolutely zero other differences between countries. If you had a valid point and not just bullshit, countries like Switzerland and Finland would be the murder capitals of Europe and not some of the safest, no?
If thsr were true, would we not see significantly higher rats of homicide and the like when guns are more prevalent?
To which the answer is yes, we see significantly high rates of homicide where guns are more prevalent.

So you’re saying we should move our gun law to be closer in line with those two countries? I agree! Let’s start by instituting Finland’s requirement for a gun license to be able to own a gun.
The U.S. has 120 guns for every 100 people, and a homicide rate or 6 per 100,000.
Finland has 32 guns for every 100 people, and a homicide rate of 1.6 per 100,000
Germany has 20 guns for every 100 people, and a homicide rate of 0.8 per 100,000.
The U.S. has the most lax gun law, followed by Finland. Germany is by far the most strict of these three. I didn’t pull this information out of my ass.
We do see that trend though. Compare the homicide rates of the U.S. with European countries.

Then put in the work and show you’re correct with a dataset you trust.
You literally linked it. I’m not opening fucking excel for an internet argument with a troll
Then stop complaining over data sources that you can’t be bothered to look at.
