> GENEVA (Reuters) - The United States has 90 guns for every 100

> France, Canada, Sweden, Austria and Germany were next, each with about
> 30 guns per 100 people, while many poorer countries often associated
> with violence ranked much lower. Nigeria, for instance, had just one

> Very interesting - especially the part about China and Russia having
> ANY privately held firearms. Bad citizens! Bad!
