More than half the victims were burned, beaten, and/or stabbed to death. Fewer than half were murdered with firearms.

Well, in the US 80% of homicides were committed with a firearm, so if your goal is to achieve that outcome, I guess you’d make guns more available.

The USA non-gun homicide rate is higher than Canada's homicide rate. Without guns you guys kill a higher percentage of your population. I'm thinking it is not just the guns.
