Gun-Related Death Rate

The key to Perry’s argument about the gun-related death rate is not directly caused by the number of guns obtained by the US citizen, and the high gun ownership could prevent the crimes from happening because they can defend themselves and their families. In addition, there are some states have high gun ownership but low gun violence incident, and in the recent year, gun violence in the US has obviously decreased by nearly 50 percent. Yet some researchers counter this idea that even though the gun violence rate has decreased, the US as a country with high gun ownership has always a higher gun-related death, and high gun ownership increases the randomness of an event happening due to the convenience of the gun using. The gun violence incident
is still continuing happening in the US, and some states situation can’t represent the general phenomenon. That fact is the argument of Boseley, and he also points out that country has high gun ownership has higher gun-related death than country which has low gun ownership.
