They are simply less violent. There were more stabbing murders in LA
last year than the total number of murders in Canada all causes.
Maybe it does have to do with our ethnic make up ... but we can't say
that.

Statistics can be very misleading unless you take all factors into
account.

You have to come away with the fact that Americans are more violent,
across the board. When you look at Australia where they did do a
massive gun roundup, the people who wanted to kill their fellow man,
simply moved to other weapons. The overall slope of murder rates
didn't really change.

John won't like this but guns, wars and violence are "ingrained" in our
culture. :-)

In your opinion. But we know you have lived from the Ghetto to the
Desert so of course you know all about those other folks who are not
packed on the east coast commuter living down long driveways, or on the
water....

How do you know where I've lived since I went out on my own in 1967?

Scott, if you were a baseball player your batting average would
be about .010 (I'll give you one hit that you got swinging with your
eyes closed).
