Oh, yeah, it's those "proliferations of guns" that is the problem. Ignore the fact that many people in different (non-big city or rural) parts of the country have tons of guns. And the homicide rates there are a tiny fraction of big city homicide rates.

Here in Wisconsin there are many millions of guns. Yet outside of Milwaukee the homicide rate is equivalent to many European cities/countries with strict gun control laws. Why is that?

Same thing here in the Ozarks, lots more guns than St Louis but not as much crime.

There is nothing in St Louis that a good coating of fire wouldn't fix.
