Is this a pro-2A argument? That we’re not the absolute worst in the whole world?

There are indeed a lot of violent, unstable, impoverished and organized crime-ridden countries. I don’t think it does us any good to compare ourselves to them.

The U.S. should be more comparable to Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc. That’s why I prefer charts like this, which show how much we lag our rich-world peers on this.

But yes, if you compare us to Latin America where everyone is coked up and the streets run with blood, yeah, we don’t look as bad.

I’m sorry — that was Latinophobic (lol), only some neighborhoods are like that, but I’m exaggerating to make a point.

it's not "latinophobic" at all because its true, but mexico's president is taking care of that right now, unlike the all of the past ones...

maybe you might not finding it discriminating but if one person complains for a genuine discrimination thing (not including so called "Russophobia"), then the image gets disqualified simples because normally if you discriminate, you'd get a posting ban for up to two days for violating ToS, but here we'd just disqualify the image instead from winning the competition.

Since Slobama has complained, I've done the right thing and done something about it

I'll post this to make things better because I made a rather too vague meme comparing the US to Brazil's gun crime rate.

Mortality rates related to firearms (per 100,000), annualized rate of change between 1990 and 2017 federation units and Brazil, 1990–2017, (a) total by firearm, (b) homicide by firearm, (c) suicide by firearm, (d) unintentional death by firearm

"Is this a pro-2A argument? That we’re not the absolute worst in the whole world?"

That is a pro 2nd amendment meme.

"There are indeed a lot of violent, unstable, impoverished and organized crime-ridden countries. I don’t think it does us any good to compare ourselves to them."

Fair enough.

"The U.S. should be more comparable to Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc. That’s why I prefer charts like this, which show how much we lag our rich-world peers on this."

If we do compare those countries then America is rather shocking with their gun related deaths I ain't denying that.

"But yes, if you compare us to Latin America where everyone is coked up and the streets run with blood, yeah, we don’t look as bad."

True, but go on.

"I’m sorry — that was Latinophobic (lol), only some neighborhoods are like that, but I’m exaggerating to make a point."

I'm not making a prejudice against them but maybe I should look more into the specific neighbourhoods. This meme was rather vague.
