This looks like it refers to the study you are talking about. http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2013/11/14/gun-violence-significantly-increased-by-social-interactions

It indicates that only demagogues write about how the US has a “gun problem” when, in fact, what it has is a criminal subculture associated with third-world murder rates, nested within a much larger society with murder rates not in any way exceptional (notwithstanding strong firearms ownership rights).
