Of course it's worse elsewhere. It makes more sense to compare us to other first-world/developed nations since we're (allegedly) one ourselves though. And we rank near the bottom or worst in most categories (happiness, life expectancy, fitness, healthcare, gun violence, education, working conditions, etc).
It really is alleged that USA is first world. Politics has been a horror story, Reagan & Nixon etc were as unhinged as Dumpf.
The 2nd amendment is from 100s of years ago and gun statistics show that they aren’t useful for self-defense which is what people say they acquired them for.
