Data:

Homicide rate in Australia (per Wikipedia, 2021): 0.86/100,000.
Homicide rate in US (same source, 2021): 3.8/100,000 - 4.4x higher

Mass murders are not unknown in Australia, but are shocking precisely because they are so rare.

We had 656 mass shootings in 2024. On average, 118 gun deaths each day.

Slipping in suicide numbers is very missleading.
They’re not gun deaths? A lot of folks attempt suicide, but ones that have access to a gun to do so have a higher rate of success than almost any other method.

…and you mispelled (and misused) “misleading”.
