You may not know it, but America has a gun problem. A big one.
Just not the problem Vox has in mind.
See, Vox seems disturbed by the fact that Americans own a lot more guns than other countries’ citizens do:
Americans make up less than 5% of the world’s population, yet they own roughly 45% of all the world’s privately held firearms. https://t.co/0vx7GQjeRS

They say that like it’s a bad thing!

Actually, in a way, it is a bad thing:
This is completely awful. That number needs to come down.
There's no reason we should be the only people in the world to have ready access to firearms. Everyone else should too!— HalfPastEight (@hpast8) March 28, 2021

But we can’t wait until the rest of the world catches up to us. We need to focus on ourselves and making sure that America continues to be the most problematic country on the planet:

Let’s do this.
According to the gun control nuts, we should have 45% of the worlds murders then. Funny, that

We may not have that, but we’ve got something else:
Guess what percent of the world's freedom we own? https://t.co/5bW5yyFjaH

We also own about 80% of the world’s freedom and the other 20% can thank us for theirs. https://t.co/PK40hiTQge
