You have to realize that pollock jokes were invented because you poles weren't known for you making good decisions or conclusions right?

The data is from 2009 for the US and 2010 for PL - recent data which gives a very valid comparison of modern society. You're now comparing the firearms deaths of a country full of concentration camps trying to exterminate an entire race of people during a war in which it was invaded by germany and russia from two different sides 70 years ago and i'm the one drawing bad conclusions?
If we're goign to be making comparisons like that, then Poland has been around in some form (Kingdom of Poland) for 1000 years so why don't we count in the lack of firearm deaths in the region during the 500-600 years before they were invented? You're comparing deaths by 200 year old muskets to rifles, gas chambers, tanks and god knows what else.
