One in three adults is armed
The United States is paying a very heavy price for the dissemination of firearms on their territory and the ease with which the Americans have access to it. The country has more individual weapons than inhabitants: one in three adults owns at least one weapon and almost one in two adults lives in a home where there is a weapon.
The consequence of this proliferation is the very high rate of death by firearm in the United States, without comparison with that of other developed countries.
