When I say "the only country" I don't include countries where you can't live at all, such as countries at war (Yemen, Somalia, Mali, Afghanistan, etc.), these are special cases, obviously it's worse to live there. I was talking about among the globalized and advanced countries, it's the only one that has this record and this culture of weapons, and this idea of literally killing people at random, I don't see that anywhere else. (excluding terrorist attacks that happen maybe once every x years in a country).

Finland? Brasil? Both are further up the list, per-capita.

This is a meme that won't die, that America is somehow the worst. The data doesn't support that.

It's probably because America gets in the news more often. Has more news organizations per-capita?
