And a lot of them do, but when was the last time you heard of a school shooting in any of these countries? If it’s only guns that kill people, and not people killing people, then surely, statically, you should all be on the same level?
The most significant difference I can come up with is America being a superpower, which is akin to being an empire in terms of military aggression/intervention. Empire and republic are mutually exclusive. Our state has pretenses to being a representative democracy but it behaves like an empire. Combine that with the socio-economic consequences of globalism and you have a society that's descending into the gutter, with the full blessing of our "representatives".
