Nationmaster makes it look real nice, but I've noticed other 'inconsistencies' in its numbers before.
Quite simple actually if the data for 'Murders with firearms (per capita)' is for say year 2000 and the data for 'Murders (per capita)' is for say 2004. I'm not saying that the stats are 100% accurate, but I believe that they give very good idea of which are the most dangerous countries, wouldn't you say?
