10 Countries that Had the Most Gun Violence in 2016

There are many reasons why people use guns, although the lowest rates of gun violence have been noticed in countries where only law enforcement is allowed to carry. Shooting left and right, just because you can, will only lead to needless deaths, including among children who can often get their hands on improperly secured firearms. Generally speaking, the largest supporters of people’s right to carry guns are lobbyists. These are also the same people who are more than happy to supply guns to all conflict zones around the world, through a wide range of channels. Insidermonkey experts made a list of 10 countries that had the most gun violence in 2016.

We have picked one country from the list. Trinidad and Tobago. The government of Trinidad and Tobago have been working for years to reduce crime, but the issue seems to be too complex, involving an overburdened legal system, too much bureaucracy, high unemployment in marginal areas, gangs, drugs and a nasty economic recession. Some success has been achieved, as the crime rate has decreased somewhat, but not enough to take the country off this top ten list. Data shows that in 2015, almost 81 percent of murders were committed by firearm. You can also check our list of 6 biggest gun manufacturers in the world.
