"By the way, "Nation Master" got that statistic from the WHO. And although they don't say it, it looks like the statistic is murders per 100,000 people. " No it doesn't. Nation Master presents their statistics in both ways (per capita or per nation). I presented statistics for USA (rapes, assaults, murders) and for Qatar using the same credible source. You and your bigoted buds want to quible over whether the statistic is exactly right. I granted you that the statistic may be subject to small error as most statistical reports are. But you insist it is stupid anyway, while presenting your own statistic reported by some news reporter as we "suspect" as many as 100 murders were honor killings as sound fact. A news reporter pulls a statistic out of his butt and you consider it a valid factoid and the Nation Master statistic is stupid, and the bully pit attack pack rails about how Islam is the underlying condition for all that is bad in the world. >>>Do you truly believe that Ten? >>>Yes I do. I presented a sound position explaining crime statistics in the context of underlying living conditions. Although observable in our own communities and regions world wide you dismiss the idea out right. Also dismissing the fact that Islam is widely practiced in relatively free crime free zones (where living conditions are not harsh) and the crime statistics do not occur. OK Ten ... got it. Please don't post to me any more. Thanks in advance.
