Ted Nugent, you are full of CRAP on ANY debate

Piers Morgan is a British anti-gun nut, and always has been. Even Jeremy Clarkson couldn't stand him, and punched him.

Let's get into a fact check though. Ted Nugent stated that the US and Switzerland were the top countries, and Piers Morgan said that it was the US and Yemen. Here's the facts:

The numbers that they were talking about come from smallarmssurvey.org 2007 report, "Annexe 4", which covers 178 countries.
The ownership rate reported is the average estimate. That table gives also the minimum and maximum estimates. For some countries, the margin of error is considerable. E.g. Yemen, ranked near the top with an ownership rate of 54.8, has a low estimate of 28.6 and a high estimate of 81.1. While the United States is ranked for the highest gun ownership rate unambiguously, Yemen based on the margin of error may rank anywhere between 2nd and 18th, Switzerland anywhere between 2nd and 16th.
The differences here are that Yemen is poor, and 46% of the population is under 15. Switzerland is one of the richest countries, and the structure of the Swiss militia system stipulates that the soldiers keep their Army issued equipment, including all personal weapons, at home.
To conclude that guns make the country safer, or more dangerous, just from the per capita numbers is ill-informed. Anyone looking to use per capita to try to regulate guns is simply trying to promote an agenda. In this particular case, having a known liberal foreign national attempt to influence US policies is pathetic.
