There is really unlikely to ever be a single factor that acts in a purely linear fashion.

But this sentence confuses me:

If it’s the guns why wasn’t it always the guns, and why was the intentional homicide rate higher when the total number of guns manufactured was lower but more US households had them?

Isn’t that an option to explain that right there, if you want to look for something simple?
