Is USA too violent?
I really really respect Johnny Depp. I think he's a great actor.
However, I read that he lives in Paris with his wife and children because USA is too violent. Is this true? I always thought that Americans are peaceful |
Yeah man the USA is fucked but, they think it's all good..
Violent bastards:ak47: |
fuck johnny dep
thats the sorriest excuse ive ever heard that motherfucker smashed a hotel room to pieces one time, when he was high..... hes saying U.S. is too violent? he needs to look in the mirror but to be honost, yes, U.S. is a violent place. certainly not for pussies like johnny dep |
ok so let me get this straight. Americans prefer use of violence instead of brain?
And that's why Johnny Depp is a pussy cuz he doesnt? |
I'm peaceful, well, until I get PMS

johnny depp is a pussy cause he is a hypocrite he has gone on many anger binges before.....he did like $6000 damage to a hotel room once.....he himself can be a violent man.... so when he sais he doesnt like to live in the u.s. because it's too violent, hes a hypocryte. |

Btw, I also think he could afford that 6k But thanks for clearing this out |
I was born in the U.S., have lived all over the country and have never had a friend or family member have any problems at all.
Course there's some neighborhoods I'd get a little nervous being in. |
It depends on where one lives here in the good ol usa
my house hardly ever gets locked - I never lock my car Out front theirs a stocked tool box,four wheeler, boat etc. sitting out front I never worry about anything getting stolen But 60 miles southwest of me is shreveport,la you better lock ALL your shit up or it aint gonna be there the mornin :) and yes theres alot of people that carry guns around here including myself. In my 35years I have never fired a gun at another person nor do I know of anyone that has. BUT if some ass wipe feels lucky one night and crawls in my house he's a dead motherfucker - and I can shoot him legally, as long as he's "in my house" - can't shoot him in the yard Do I feel safe here - yes very much so |
you carry gun? thats safe

Yeah it's so much more violent then what's going on elsewhere in the world right now.
He's just a pussy and its better that he doesn't live here, guess france suits him just fine. |
I feel safe in US. Unless you are in Detroit. LOL
When I drive in US I hardly lock my car, but when I am in Europe I always make sure I lock it good. |
He's one to talk.
Johnny Depp trashed a hotel room in NYC costing them $1,200 in damages, was arrested in Vancouver for having a fight with a hotel security guard, and was fucking Kate Moss when she was only 16. |
Some excerpts from http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs/hosb601.pdf :
Homicides per 100,000 population of the city, average per year from 1997 to 1999 : The average for an EU member states capital is 2.71 per 100,000. London - 2.36 Edinburgh - 2.15 Belfast - 5.23 Vienna - 1.64 Brussels - 2.67 Prague - 4.28 Copenhagen - 3.43 Paris - 2.21 Berlin - 3.23 Rome - 1.22 Amsterdam - 5.37 Warsaw - 5.49 Moscow - 18.2 Geneva - 1.98 Canberra - 0.64 Sydney - 1.7 Tokyo - 1.17 Pretoria - 27.47 New York - 9.38 Washington DC - 50.82 Homicides per 100,000 population of the country, average per year from 1997 to 1999 : The average for an EU country is 1.7 per 100,000.

You're approx 10 times more likely to be murdered in South Africa than in the USA. You're more likely to be the victim of crime in Canada (excluding homicide) than in the US. You stand the same chance of being a victim of crime (excluding homicide) in the USA and you are in France. You're 10 times more likely to get flamed on GFY than on Adult Webmaster Info :Graucho |
Something else I remember reading but don't have exact details.
Number of people shot in the USA in the year 2000 - 40,000 Number of people shot in the UK in the year 2000 - 40 |
I hear this all the time from people overseas. "Oh my gosh, You all carry guns! Your So Violent! Eek!"
Yes, We are violent. But we also have a country that the rest of the world would like to emulate in some way. We aren't crazy about the fact that we are a little dangerous but it's that same cowboy mentality that we have here that ends up helping other countries out of the deep shit they get into from time to time. We can handle it, so stop worrying about it. |
The USA is probably more violent than Finland, but less violent than other places in the world...Hummm...Let's take a look:
For example, Finland has a population of 5,181,115 and had an estimated 27,323 violent offences reported (manslaughter, murder, homicide and assault). That's about 1 violent offence per 190 people. The USA, God bless Her, had a (based on 2000 data) population of 282,124,631 and an actual (as opposed to reported) figure, based on data gathered from victims (instead of law enforcement entities), of 2,186,700 violent crimes. That's about 1 violent offence per 130 people. That's interesting. Fro |

Our problem is we're not violent enough on repeat violent criminals. Instead of punishing them, we find a syndrome or condition they suffer from, and excuse them because of that.
If repeat violent offenders were actually punished properly here, we'd have a lot less violent crime. |
Every major city has violence..

Your statistics are scewed for one major reason. They are based on population. Hundreds of millions of people work in DC and NY every day. But no one lives there. The only people that live inside of DC and NY are people who live in the extremely bad and poor neighborhoods. Most of the people that work there live in the nice suburbs around the cities, which are lower crime zones. This is the case in any large city. Most of the cities you wouldn't want to be in at night, but during the day they are crime free.

Everyone has a problem with the US until they need help. Just like so many Americans have problems with cops until they need help. |

For wht is worth, I was born and raised in England but now live in the USA. I feel perfectly safe here, and I felt perfectly safe in England. One thing the stats do show is that the chances of getting murdered are tiny, so don't worry about it - relax, and have a :drinkup |

Also, US crime revolves around our underclass which, instead of letting die off, our liberal dopes have decided to prop up and allow to multiply. (one of the reasons D.C. is so riddled with crime) The crime rate in my town is so low that they report traffic violations for lack of any other news. :) |
12clicks - it has been proven time & time again that many foriegners work very hard or bring money with them.
Only the illegals drag a country down. America not long ago, was formed by "foriegners". Unless your a Native Indian, I bet someone in your history moved from Europe to America at some point. |

Its time for America to take a year off from propping up the world so that mikas and martins of the world realize just how much we do. |
