        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

          @jolly If you want to compare the US to those countries to claim success in fighting crime, you've really lost the argument.

            TG found a list of countries

            I found a different list

            Curse the lists or light a candle

              The fact that your list is basically a list of countries that Donald Trump doesn't want people to emigrate from didn't give you pause at all?

                No wonder he wanted to annex purchase Greenland from Denmark.

                  There are some unsavory places on my list

                  But I also have several that should be considered "developed" that somehow, TG left off her list.

                    As some have noticed, the graph I posted was, as the title said, for developed countries excluding South Africa.

                    Below is a graph of all countries.

                    alt text

                    "But is it really fair to compare the U.S. to dangerous, developing countries like Honduras? Probably not. If the data is whittled down to include only developed countries, this is the result:"

                    alt text

                    "So, what happens if we eliminate South Africa from the analysis?"

                    alt text

                    "The developed countries in the third graph included: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK (represented separately as "England & Wales" and "Northern Ireland") and the United States. Excluded from this list were South Africa, for the reasons listed above, as well as Andorra, Bermuda, Faroe Islands, Vatican, Liechtenstein, Monaco and San Marino due to insufficient data."

                    If you include many Asia "developed" countries (Japan, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, etc., it would not make the US look better.

                    @Copper I am curious which ones you consider developed equal to the US from your list?

                      "The developed countries in the third graph included: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK (represented separately as "England & Wales" and "Northern Ireland") and the United States. Excluded from this list were South Africa, for the reasons listed above, as well as Andorra, Bermuda, Faroe Islands, Vatican, Liechtenstein, Monaco and San Marino due to insufficient data."

                      If you include many Asia "developed" countries (Japan, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, etc., it would not make the US look better.

                      @Copper I am curious which ones you consider developed equal to the US from your list?

                      Since we became great again there is really only 1.

                      Of course this has already begun to slip.

                        No wonder he wanted to annex purchase Greenland from Denmark.

                        I'd always assumed he wanted to build the world's most challenging golf course there.

                        I was only joking

                          Actually, it made pretty good sense from a strategic perspective.
