I imagine it's stuff like these 2 articles linked in the op

https://apnews.com/article/gun-violence-science-health-covid-mental-20f5e2cb5fb50ff747fe316fdc4db5c4

https://apnews.com/article/violence-mass-shootings-summer-b004331ee7d3da95bce6646547f8d43f

The study shows gun violence rising, and that does include suicides. Though its most likely spurred on by the mass shootings mentioned in the second link. Taking those together explains the proposed measures.

Not all gun violence includes crimes (suicides), and not all violent crimes involve guns

I generally agree that metric is better, but there's an argument for Fahrenheit.

It was based on human body temperature, so its easier to inuit if a temperature "feels hot"

Everything can be done with the other scale if you're willing to think about it
