Number of Murders by Firearms in the US, 2010: 8,775

Number of Murders by firearms, Britain, 2011: 58
(equivalent to 290 US murders based on population size)

Hey, the good old USA can do that equivalent 290 murders by firearms in one city.

Of course, the UK did have 2 murders by crossbow and the US data for crossbow murders was not available.
