The number of people murdered in the US per capita each year appears to be about three times higher than in the UK. I don't know how many of the murders are committed using guns though.
Once again, you need to factor in the rather different composition of the population in the United States for a realistic comparison.

Let me give you a chance to clarify, Carl. Are you actually suggesting that the United States has a higher crime rate than the United Kingdom because there are more black people here?
Really?
