Homicide Rate in Europe (by country) and the USA (by state) in 2020

"We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!"

Imagine how bad it would be if Americans didn't have guns to defend themselves.

Louisianians be like "Chicago tho amirite"

There's some bad boujee downindatbayou.

What's the deal with Louisiana?

outside of NO, the region is reletively low on education, poverty ridden and low opportunity. its the trio that makes high homicide rate.
- Oh there's plenty of people killing each other in the city too.
- reletively low on education
  You don't say
Corruption, poor education, overpowered oil/gas lobby, for-profit prison system that encourages recidivism
And that's just scratching the surface
- I remember reading something while ago that did link high temperatures with higher rates of things like violence. Essentially, being hot all the damn time makes everyone's baseline level of irritability higher and so things escalate more often. Seems a bit counter-intuitive though if we all came from Africa so I'm not sure how true it ultimately is.
Wasn’t that where true detective season 1 was based in? Says all you need to know.
Get killed... Louisiana fast
Think 15 milly

Why do these European charts omit the UK?

We left the EU, not the bloody continent.

The data is provided by Eurostat. An EU organisation, they are not going to fund numbers for a country not in the EU anymore (some other countries might still join for various reasons.)
- If they hold that stance, the graph should not use 'Europe' when they essentially mean 'EU member nations', especially if they omit the UK for the reasons you state as the UK is a part of Europe.
  Edit: not sure how difficult this is to understand. Europe is a continent, which includes the UK. The chart says Europe, not EU, whilst omitting a country within Europe.
We are on there but we had no killings. Just tragic accidents for the greater good.

What's the reason for excluding so many european countries in this graphic?

The UK not being included makes me think that these are only EU member countries? I don't know for sure though.
- Switzerland is included though. I'm thinking it's just data availability.
It looks like their source was the Eurostat Data Browser. Maybe these are just the countries it has data for?
As with all EU policy, the purpose is to make the USA look bad. This is the only reason Russia is not even in the EFTA or the EU.
I have insider information that powers are play are trying to engineer a way to kick out Latvia to make the statistics more embarrassing to you.
PS: UK 1.48, Switserland Not a country, Russia 6.8, Belarus 2.32, Ukraine 3.84 pre-war, Moldavia 2.27 USA 6.38
I don't think adding Russia will make the difference you think it will, since it's barely more violent than the US.
- The UK would be 1.00 on this chart - source
seems to be some non-eu countries...
- Yet switserland is colored in
so many
Two countries are being left out. Is two a high number to you?
- UK, Switserland, Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldavia.
  Cyprus is included for some reason.
  Which two of the above were you referring to?
Whenever you see a map with data about most European countries but not the UK, it's probably Eurostat. After Brexit they stopped sharing their data.
No data available is what I assumed.

Missouri is actually #1 if you count all the copicides.

Ah yes, the mostly aptly named state, misery.

UK isn't included for some reason, but in 2020 it was 1.00.

I wanted to say "Duh brexit" but as switzerland is also included and some other non-eu states...
- Also the title doesn't say EU, it says Europe.

What’s up with New Hampshire that it’s on par with the EU countries?

Authright (PCM) has an answer but I won't repeat it here
- Why not? Are you some sorta coward? I'll say it: yeah, fascists think a whiter population leads to reduced crime rates. That's because fascists are rubes and imbeciles with such a stunted worldview that they're incapable of considering the effects of any other socio-economic factors such as education, distribution of wealth, etc.

Alabama: "We aren't Mississippi!"

Guess they can include a few others too.

Latvia is the Louisiana of Europe

What's up in the baltic?

The leading cause of homicide in the Baltic countries is alcohol. What is interesting is that the victims are usually family members and friends, because you drink at the same table and when you argue, you get angry and it ends badly. It is rare that a person is killed without a connection to the killer, and if it does happen, it makes the national headlines.
During the multiple occupations of the Baltic countries, alcohol was used to control the population. The tsar used it, Stalin used it and now Putin uses it. Alcohol helps to escape from reality and provides comfort. It will take time to overcome the alcoholic generations, measures are being taken to help solve the problem, but you can't change a country where for more than a hundred years alcoholism was the norm.
- I'd just like to interject and say we cause our own alcoholism, thank you very much. No help from our "friend" in the east needed.

Homicide rate in German federal states per 100k inhabitants

Hmm Mord means murder though, not homicide, that would be Totschlag. Also there is a note in the sidebox that the graphs include attempted murders.
The German equivalent to Alabama is nearly as bad as the original ;-)
Whoooo Rheinland-Pfalz! Lesgoooo!

“Surely not!” And then with a heavy sigh, I remembered Baltimore.

Same thing happened to me 😔

Look at "them there" red states. Life is cheap south of the Mason Dixon Line.

No lives matter (except the rich)
It's just another part of the wide range of fantastic options for post-natal abortions, from the fourth trimester onward!

Hmm. Pennsylvania. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Philly.

Damn, Latvia

Why is Mississipi not first on this list too? Louisiana seems off the charts. Any explanation for that?

...But muh second amendment right!

/S

Im a bit suprised where New Hampshire is on the list. They are the little texas of new england and you can not tell anyone from that state what to do.

Whoo!! Better than Latvia!

There are some surprises among the best us states, or maybe I’m just not as familiar with them as I expected

Europe sits further north than the US does.
The homicide rate seems to go down as you move north.
I am willing to bet if you take the most populous cities in each state they'd fall in a similar organization.
So we can reasonably conclude that hot summers make you want to murder a motherfucker.
Obviously. Nothing else could cause this. Nothing.
Clearly thoughts and prayers aren't helping. So it must be the weather.
- We need a National crash funding program for air conditioning. That’ll solve it. /s

i'ld say thats not really a surprise IF you have a system that helps criminals to thrive while it tries hard to always put innocent to jail instead and prevent real investigations for the truth, thats at least how i see it.

Below are some links to related "last week tonight"s from YT.

Plz tell me if thats just a show full of lies or if that terror is real in poor underdeveloped 3rd world US: (i might have linked videos not too bad, but i think i was horrified by the outcomes of those linked)
