On the subject of body counts, abortion is the number one killer in America by far!! Anyone following Kermit's house of horrors? Look at England where "no one has guns" and yet the rape and robbery rates dwarf those of any place in America. In my mind, Anti-gun is pro-crime.
Yea more out of context statistics.
England is a magnet for arabs, pakisthanis, and 1/2 the third world, and that's just the legal immigrants. They have rape as currency, rape as a pre cursor to an arranged marriage, and rape as a revenge instrument. Now england is almost as densely populated as New jersey and its almost the size of NC.
Its 2 X the population of CA as a reference and 1/3rd the size about.
Comparing that to a country where you cant find no one to rob is really comparing apples to oranges. It may be correct to compare NYC to london, or NJ to england. Open country is a serious motivation against crime.
And yes england even after all that has higher crime, but england also is the "destination" for a lot of the worlds poor. The US is just the destination for the hispanic poor.
Cool.
