Neither bottom nor murders is a proper noun. Stop murdering English.

There is shite for enforcement in those towns. And I’m not just talking about the under staffed and under paid cops.

The judges and DA’s in those cities are a fricking joke.

That's cool and all, but the street justice murders in Brazil, Venezuela, and Africa win by a landslide. They DGAF.

We’re fourth from bottom even keeping Atlanta, Jackson, St. Louis, Memphis, and Baltimore? Can you share your math on this one because I’m skeptical.

What I hate is how the violence in these cities is centered around gun control argument

1. Liberals will say they need more control

2. Conservatives say less gun control will make them safer.

It has nothing to do with guns or gun laws. Nobody wants to address the elephant in the room I.e who is committing the murders

In 2018, there was one murder here in Boise. For the year. That’s 11pm on a Friday night in most blue cities. Wonder what the difference is?

The safest countries are typically small island areas like Bermuda, San Marino, Isle of Man, etc. Most of them record zero murders on an average year.

Luxembourg is the safest "country" with a rate of 0.2 per 100,000.

Japan sits at 0.3

Australia is at 0.9

Canada sits at 2 per 100,000

Europe as a whole averages 3 per 100,000.

India sits at 3 per 100,000

The USA sits at 6.5 per 100,000 (in 2020). However, the USA was at 4.5 for about a decade prior to that.

Most dangerous countries:

Virgin Islands - 50
Jamaica - 44 (All that weed leads to violence).
El Salvador - 37
Venezuela? -- 36
Honduras - 36
South Africa - 33
Mexico - 28
Brazil - 22

Latin America has a major problem. It cant all be explained by poverty. Africa is poorer and the murder rate isn't as high.

Yeah but none of those other cities have that many blacks murdering each other and hen turning around and blaming white people that don’t live there.

This sounds like the manipulation of statistics to push an agenda. While I think it’s evident the US is currently on a bad trajectory, it’s still safer than a lot of other countries I’ve been to. Come back to me when you’ve been in a place that you need an armed military guard in the car with you to get to an international airport.
