You know how the U.S. has the highest amount and percent of people in prison? Interestingly, our arrest and conviction rates are about the same as European countries which have pretty small prison populations. The thing that gives us a high prison pop is how long our sentences are. 15-20 for selling a a bottle of pills is the perfect example of this.Mutantbear wrote:
trafficking oxycodone which can be as little as selling 40 pills will min-max you 15-20 years in prison

The orginal thing I saw many years ago had a link to Interpol's 2001 crime report. The link has been moved or removed by interpol. I have some other sources, including a university, which cite the Interpol report.Mutantbear wrote:

http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/faculty/rwinslow/index.html <--- Has a crime stats read out for each country inthe world. It's towrds the middle of each article.
This site
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_t … tal-crimes
Has the total amount of crimes committed by every country. It cites a U.N. report from 2002.
Yes the U.S. is ahead of the closest country the U.K. but the U.S. has a population of 300 million compared to the U.K's 60 million. Multiply the U.K.'s number by 5 and see where it stands compared to the U.S.

Not saying the U.K. has 5 times the amount of crime the U.S. does, the devil is really in the details, but it goes to show you the U.S. is not a crime infested place that warrants having a massive prison population.
But Jay does start it first and then reports it once he gets mad.unnamednewbie13 wrote:

The crime rate in United Kingdom is high compared to other industrialized countries. An analysis was done using INTERPOL data for United Kingdom. For purpose of comparison, data were drawn for the seven offenses used to compute the United States FBI's index of crime. Index offenses include murder, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, and motor vehicle theft. The combined total of these offenses constitutes the Index used for trend calculation purposes. United Kingdom will be compared with Japan (country with a low crime rate) and USA (country with a high crime rate). According to the INTERPOL data, for murder, the rate in 2001 was 1.63 per 100,000 population for United Kingdom 1.10 for Japan, and 5.61 for USA. For rape, the rate in 2001 was 16.50 for United Kingdom, compared with 1.78 for Japan and 31.77 for USA.

well the UK does love its cars. That burglary statistic is very out of place to me. Maybe less burglaries are documented in the US or something. I cant imagine the UK just loves to steal a lot more, seems weird
