care to guess?



Poverty rate of 0.5% vs our 12%
Overall less violent crime
Better police training
Better social safety net
More homogeneous society
Smaller population
No bullshite war on drugs

Those are just a few of many guesses. As much as Id love to be able to compare us to Scandinavian countries, it can't be done. We are too different. Doesn't mean we can't learn a thing or two from them.

And they would all be accurate. Plus the less guns thing. I'm not trying to make this a gun control thing, but if a cop responds to a situation knowing with 99% certainty the perp doesn't have a gun, he's gonna be a lot less trigger happy.
