The Scottish government handily mentions that 56% of female victims are killed by a partner/ex partner.

Which becomes a rate of 0.17 female homicide by partner/ex partner per 100K people.

England and Wales claims 62% of female homicide victims are killed by a partner/ex partner.

England and Wales 0.21 female killed by partner/ex partner per 100M

US 55% by partner/ex partner.

US 0.77 Female homicide by partner/ex partner per 100k

So about 3x as much as the UK.

I done England and Wales because Scotland and NI report separately

Scotland 2021/22 homicide rate 1.0 per 100k

Scotland female 0.25 per 100K.

"Most" people think the guns with Glock and Colt stamped on them were made illegally. 🙄 Sure they do. You're spouting common knowledge as if it is some rare secret when the only people who think America is full of illegally produced weapons are 14 year old swedes during their first week on the Internet.

These people that you think are "most" Americans are probably less than 5% of the population, the same 5% you can convince that lavender oil can cure cancer or the the moon is fake or any other crazy thing that is completely ridiculous.

Who assumes that about guns? The US is the largest market for guns in the whole world, with dozens of domestic producers. Sounds like you just made something up to provide a comparison. Maybe a couple hundreds of idiots but the general public doesn't assume guns in gun stores are smuggled from Mexico.

Chatham-Kent is a place (town, city, dunno not googling it) in Ontario, Canada.

You'll find almost every place in the UK has a twin somewhere in North America. I've never heard of my towns twin but there was a grizzly church murder in Midlothian, Texas which is named after my county.
