That's typical internet BS.
"Studies by or for Congress, the Department of Justice, the Congressional Research Service, the Library of Congress, the National Academy of Sciences, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have found no evidence that "gun control" reduces crime, suicides or accidents in the U.S. or abroad"

This data doesn't control for self-inflicted or defensive deaths, does it?

I was wondering that as well. My guess is this isn't specifically homicides. It most likely includes suicides as well.

Good job incomplete data! People like you only want headlines. The Daily Show is probably the closest thing you get to news.

Let's not forget it sites the all knowing open sourced Wikipedia as a source. I guess all that gun control in Chicago and Washington DC completely ended gun violence....oh never mind.

This limited scope use of statistics brings to mind that quote by Samuel Clemens. But it's too obvious to type out.

Clearly the data is slanted, but we do have a high rate of gun homicide in the US. Not as bad as this and other internet charts make it look but it is still high.
