Even when it comes to murder, there are a number of European contries with higher rates.
Yes. Greenland. A country where most people own a firearm. Also Estonia and Lithuania. Poor countries.
All other european countries, even countries who where in civil war a few years ago have murder rates a factor of 2 to 8 lower than the US.

The link you posted ranks the US, one of the richest nations in the world, at place 103 of 180 countries in murder rate. Something you can be proud of!
Virtually all countries at comparable development to US have murder rates much lower than the US.
