Each death, individually, is a tragedy. Collectively? On a population of 330 MILLION? It's literally NOTHING. That's how statistics work.
In the big list of the top 59 ways Americans die, accidental gunshot is #59, fewer than those killed by cops, btw, which is #58, homicidal gunshot is #31 and suicidal gunshot is #21.
Well, we already know we aren't every other developed nation, that's why we don't have universal health care either. Or guaranteed vacation time, or paid parental leave, or dozens of other things that just might, you know, make people not want to shoot each other. :)
The worst part, the absolute worst part, is the morons keeping us from having these nice things insisting that we're the greatest country on the planet. Clearly that's not true, but man, try to convince them of that…

Whole country sound like a rounding error lmao

Tbf your comments are a great example of why we do need universal mental healthcare. And better education.
