Now, going back to the WISQARS tool and filtering for black male victims between the ages of 15 and 35, a total of 4,675 homicide victims were recorded, with a rate (for that age group) of 65.5/100,000. That group makes up only 2.2% of the total population, but represents 29.6% of the victims of homicide. If we could reduce the homicide rate in that one group to the national rate of 4.96/100,000, it would save 4,321 lives.

And it would reduce the national homicide rate to 3.6/100,000.

There are something like 300 million guns in America. How many were used today to murder someone? The percentage rate is something like .000.... You get the idea.
