Reply to comment by Soonerpalmetto88 in [OC] Firearm availability compared to homicide rates around the world by blizzard36

That big spike in firearm availability at the end. I was tempted to number the countries and leave them anonymous, but that was just as cluttered.

Not being able to figure out a way to pick which countries I wanted to call out, while still leaving all the data points in, was my primary frustration working on this tonight. But I haven't done one of these in about 8 years.

So only every other country in the graph is labeled?

A line graph is not appropriate for this at all. There's nothing to interpolate "between" countries.

I think it's actually every 3rd.

I honestly prefer the raw data tables, much easier to sort. But this format does show the gap at the end well.
