So the only death rates that should matter are those commited with guns?
The point he's making is that even with ALL homicides included in the calculations we are still very low on the list while countries that have the strictest gun laws also have the highest homicide rates per capita.
Oddly enough in looking at the link you provided, suicides with firearms is about 2.5 times higher than the homicide rate with firearms.
