@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

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?

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

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