That's up just under 10,000 people in a 17 year time frame , so as you say your countries gun policy is actually working
Now for a country who gun reforms obviously hasn't worked Australia

Now if your math isn't that sharp , like you seem to be , that more than a 50% decrease
Australian government introduced a gun buy back scheme where any firearm legal or illegal could be handed in and the Government would purchase it , no questions asked ,661,000 were handed in
The government implement a policy in regards to private ownership of automatic, semi automatic, military and shot guns and there has not been a massacre here in 22 years
The emphasis was always on the individual to hand in firearms if they felt they wanted to or register and keep in secure and locked location with ammunition to be stored in a separate location to the firearm
Now you can and moan and cry about anything stated here , but is there a need for a semi automatic or automatic weapons for home defense ... no there isnt
Statistics show that they are not necessary , figures show that in Australia our rate and numbers of death by firearms is going down and has stabilized where in the states its increasing
So tell yourself whatever makes you feel safe and cozy in your murderous gun cultured country Dugan , it always comes back to the individual and you sir are one scared little man
Like this Holy , or are your eyes just painted on
Typical see what you want to see
