Still, it doesn't take into account the per captia as the population has increased greatly in that time period. It also compares with the lowest decade of homicide by guns in a long time. Per capita, the 1970s were higher.

Per capita is by definition adjusting for population change. It literally means "per person".

I factored in the population increase, that's why I wrote per capita. Without looking at the population increase that's an increase of exactly 50%.
