Hello all, I was reading some interesting statistics (I found a really cool stats website -- www.nationmaster.com). One I was interested in was "the most murderous countries". I knew that my homeland, Venezuela, would be right at the top (murders per capita).
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph-T/cri_mur_cap What I didn't expect to see was a first-world country in the top list. The USA is number 24. Sure, it fares better than Ukraine, Russia and Zambia. But I was sad to see it on the top list. It looks like the murder rate there is 4 times higher than that in "comparable" countries like France, Australia, Canada, UK, Italy, etc. Cheers, -- Daniel Carrera | I don't want it perfect, Join OOoAuthors today! | I want it Tuesday. http://oooauthors.org |
