Based on the Mexico numbers, this must be per legally registered gun as it's almost impossible to get a gun license there. Is this is a ranking of countries that have heavily restricted firearm ownership but are nevertheless rather violent?

I’ve seen on extremist websites, citing FBI data, that 13%* of the US population commits over half of the violent crime. If this is incorrect, I can wash some feet or literally kiss some ass, or whatever y’all would like me to do to atone for my racist wrongthink.
*more like <5% if you whittle it down to military-age males

MacP just dreams of a more just America where people try to murder him for the content of his character and the race of the murderer and him have no bearing on it.
It is actively anti racist to work for a country where he has exactly the same odds of getting murdered as a black man.

All those countries get their guns from the United States

My first thoughts were:
What's a "gun"?
What's "homicide"?
What's "owned"?
Within each of these countries.

I think it's suppose to show a lack of correlation between the number of guns present and gun-related homicide rates to show it's culture not guns causing the killing, but it doesn't really show that since gun ownership is not linear, as
The Guardian reports:
part of the 3% of American adults who collectively own 130m firearms, half of the nation’s total stock of civilian guns.
That top 14% of gun owners – a group of 7.7m people, or 3% of American adults – own between about eight and 140 guns each. The average is 17.
