That's an interesting statistic. A scary one too...

I was going to say 950 thinking it was a conservative guess.

I mean those figures would suggest slightly worse, not far worse, although if you're talking per-capita the stats for Colombia, Venezuela and Guatemala are horrifying - more gun deaths than the US and as many as Brazil, but those three countries combined have a population of fewer than 100 million.

Honestly though the socioeconomic situation in those countries is not comparable to the US...
