Thanks for getting out your elementary statistics books and posting the intro to chapter 1, it was very helpful and I appreciate the lesson in statistics and data analysis. Please refer to Humerox's reply for more information. I appreciate the guidance that a seasoned hand like yours provides.
While you have the statistics book out, please see if there is anything in there regarding being able to apply data and analysis to a conversation that we are actually having and not some arbitrary facts about a comparison between overall violence between two cultures as opposed to an identifiable effect that gun controls has on a population either positive or negative. Since you've already looked at the data once and can't seem to find the answer, I will give you a hint. Restrictive gun laws, when implemented in Britain, increased the rate of murder and violent crime. Alternatively, you can go back about 6 pages, read my post, and then shit your pants for having realized that you are nothing and you know nothing.
For additional steps, please google video search glengary glen ross. Thank you.

You should probably take your own advice. You need to learn to apply your statistics.
I guess I need to provide more elementary statistics since you still can't seem to understand the basics. You need a large enough sample size for a normal distribution. This is largely dependent on the population of your data but a accepted minimum is 30. You took 1 value and tried to make a claim on that value.
If you had any clue about what you were doing you would realize that isnt a responsible practice.You are basically cherry picking the information you want to serve your bias.
How dare you!
Also, please learn what statistics are and how to evaluate them, you are quite embarrassing.
