Not &quot;legion&quot;, at least in the US, ~600 fatal&#x2F;year (with plenty of false reporting), specifically per Wikipedia (<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>) in 2013 505 vs. 11,208 homicides.  Since I started tracking that in the very early &#x27;80s, it&#x27;s gone down by 25% while the total population and number of guns has grown by very roughly 50%.
