As someone without a real dog in the gun control fight... What do you think about what this guy says? Think it's accurate? I'm guessing the top 5 cities include Chicago and NYC, but I'm not sure what the rest would be.
This guy...solves nothing about gun violence

He should have just started his video by saying he doesn't understand statistics.
He is clearly mixing numbers. And likely doing it intentionally. He goes with highest firearm death rates and then starts cutting out cities to reduce the NUMBER, not the rate.
Rural counties lead in incidents per 100k people.
Map of gun deaths shows cities have lower rates than rural counties in the U.S.
The most rural counties had a 37% higher rate of firearm deaths than the most urban counties from 2011 to 2020, an analysis found.

I mean just on the face of it are we really to believe that we fall to damn near the bottom of the entire world in gun violence just by taking out 5 cities?
BULL FREAKING SHIT
Of course he doesn't cite his statistics. Anyone that says facts matter should at least do that.

It's quite a coincidence that when you remove a massive chunk of people from an equation it results in less undesirable statistics. Sort of how so many want to believe our last president only served 3 years instead of the traditional 4.
