US is the most violent society of all industrialized countries.

Have you seen any related studies regarding the ethnic makeup of the societies involved? Sure Japan is safe, but its completely homogeneous too. Someone I know from Canada told me Quebec has the most crime of all Canadian provences (I don't know if this is heresay unfortunately), but she attributes it to the tension between the francophones and anglophones. I certainly can vouch for there being tension. But just having that variance in society causing more violence? Well if thats the case then the US would be predisposed from the start.
