London has large areas that are mainly Pakistani or Afro Carribean, and yet it is one of the safest capital cities in the world with a murder rate of just 1.1 per 100k of pop.
It has to do with the level of poverty we have in this country and it is exaperated by the easy access to firearms..
I think they actually give methadone not heroin.
I don’t see what horses have to do with it though, not sure where you’re going with that one.
We have a higher prison population than China, but maybe that’s because they ust execute them.
Take all of the non violent offenders out of prison, you know the ones who have been busted for having a joint etc. That makes more room for the violent offenders and keeps them away from the general population. That said though, most shootings are not done by violent career criminals, but rather by familiars, that means someone known to the victim, family, friend, associate etc. Most murders are commited by legal gun owners, not criminals, at least they weren’t criminals until they decided to shoot someone in a fit of rage, which is in over 77% of cases what actually happens.
