In 2005 there were 29,000 deaths caused by firearms. A teenager in the U.S. is 12x more likely to die in a shooting then in any other country in the world. I don't have any stats for last year, but it's not nearly as high as most people believe. In the U.S. for 2001, there were 29,573 deaths from firearms *Suicide 16,869 *Homicide 11,348 *Accident 802 *Legal Intervention 323 *Undetermined 231

How are the people treated in a communist country?

This question should be answered with history as history will be your best guide in this question.In 1917 Russia became communist, to control the people they killed anyone that disagreed with them. Being that communism is based in paganism, they killed or berated religious leaders, unless they switched to promote communism. By 1932 Stalin had taken Lenin's place as leader and he again killed off the opposition to him. He then signed an order on September 11th 1932 to take all the food from the Ukraine (a country controlled by Stalin and communism that resisted), this is known as the 'Holodormor' (murder by hunger) of roughly 10 million people.In 1953 Chairman Mao takes control of China he removes food from the people as a tack to control the people as well as killing his opposition. The total is truly unknown but, "Chairman Maohimself claimed to have killed 70 million of his people"In 1958 Castro takes control of Cuba with the help of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara. Che himself takes credit for personally executing 'more then 158 people' after taking power.The answer can be found in the fact's listed above. But in this case you should research; Holodormor, Mao starves, Che's Diaries, Stalin's Correspondence with Kaganovich 1932-'36, As well Francisco Franco's Spain.My opinion based on many years of study is that communism is the complete removal of peoples rights with control through killing many of their own people to guarantee this control.This the answer would be people are treated poorly in communist countries.I hope this helps
