Reading the material which you quoted might help:
Or if you are specifically talking about gun deaths:

Just another attempt at misdirection since the subject at hand and facts show the argument to be flawed.
But based on twisted realities, maybe we should wonder why a country such as the US has approx 15 times the population of Austalia, with gun ownership approx 10 times higher per capita, yet once again statistics don't prove the country to be 150 times as deadly.
Nor have US mass shootings managed to top the death toll of the Port Arthur shootings. With so many people and so many guns, wouldn't that be a given based on the straw man debate principles?

Because 15 times a population multiplied by 10 times per capita is 150% of a population?
If gun ownership is approx 10 times higher per capita, shouldn't we expect a 10 times higher per capita rate for homicide with firearms?
wiki magic - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ted_death_rate
Firearm-related death rate per 100,000 population per year
Total Calculated:
US - 10.30
Aus - 1.06
10.30 / 1.06 = 9.71 (that looks about 10 times higher per capita, or thereabouts)
Homicides:
US - 3.60
Aus - 0.13
3.60 / 0.13 = 27.69
Surely you need to compare like for like.The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

Some good live action filmed by On The Limit and with cars at 30s intervals making it really enjoyable to watch: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/royfY3g2z2rYMgEL/
