The US has about 16,000 gun deaths per year. (with a bunch more deaths by suicide).  That&#x27;s about 40 per day.<p>In 2013 CDC say: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Gun_violence_in_the_United_States" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Gun_violence_in_the_United_Sta...</a><p>&gt; in 2013, firearms (excluding BB and pellet guns) were used in<p>&gt; 84,258 nonfatal injuries (26.65 per 100,000 U.S. citizens) [2] and<p>&gt; 11,208 deaths by homicide (3.5 per 100,000),[3]<p>&gt; 21,175 by suicide with a firearm,[4]<p>&gt; 505 deaths due to accidental discharge of a firearm,[4] and<p>&gt; 281 deaths due to firearms-use with &quot;undetermined intent&quot;[5] for a total of 33,169 deaths related to firearms (excluding firearm deaths due to legal intervention).<p>That would be about 90 per day.  US police shoot and kill about 1,000 people per year, but weirdly they don&#x27;t count so we don&#x27;t have robust numbers.
