I don't know if this is true or not but I once heard if you got rid of the five most violent cities, we would go from number 1 in gun violence to the middle two hundreds
I wish I had that infographic saved somewhere as it is nearly impossible to search for, but yeah I remember the same. IIRC it had multiple steps showing that if you reduce the stats to just White European descended Americans and remove suicides we have a gun violence rate less than or equal to countries like Finland.

Normalize the murder rate of blacks to that of whites and the US murder rate per 100,000 falls in line with Europe.
We have never had a gun violence problem, we have a black violence problem.

Yes, but it's not a super fair comparison, since every other country would still have their crime-ridden shitholes, pushing up their numbers.
That said, it's still a useful comparison, since it does help against the narrative that the USA is dangerous overall, because of all them dang guns.
