Not quite a meme.

Probably not news to most of us - but worth the occasional reminder.

That link doesn't work for me.

Sorry the link didn't work. Here is the wording without the pretty picture:
The United States is 3rd in murders throughout the world.
However, if you remove Chicago, Detroit, Washington DC, St. Louis and New Orleans, the United States is then 189th out of 193 countries in the whole world.
PS: All 5 cities have strict gun control laws.

Not your fault. That website uses Cloudflare for content propagation and access control, so it isn't accepting the forum's host server for inbound requests without one of those "confirm you're human" checkbox things. I wonder if those stats hold true from the last FBI annual crime report. I'm too lazy to go look, though, so I'll take it at face value.

Had a conversation this morning with someone about U.S. "gun violence" and told them I was of the opinion that 90% of all gun crimes could be traced back to gang activity or a precursor crime like drugs or robbery. The media and left-leaning politicians have everybody believing it's all attributable to mass shootings and right-wing extremists.

I wonder how we would rank if we also removed NY and LA.
