12. I think this also highlights the types of severe criminals each country produces

I'd be willing to bet a doughnut that most murders in Sweden are crimes of passion, meaning that an otherwise mostly decent (but perhaps unstable) person snapped against someone they perceived had wronged them.

Where I would believe that a far greater percentage of murders in the US are cold emotionless crimes. Murdering as part of robbery, killing someone because they are part of a rival gang, killing because of race. Murders where it wasn't about the individual themselves, but about what they had or what they represented.

We have failed so many in this country, and there are a lot of broken people on our streets because of it.
