    Wait, crime in America isn’t actually that high? B-b-but legacy media and Reddit said that I should be terrified for my life every time I walk out my front door! lol

      1. This is homicide. Not crime.
      2. This map is comparing US with Canada and a Latin America. Latin america in general (obvously as seen, there are big differences between countries) is known for high crime and homicide rate. Concluding “not that high homicide” by looking at this nap is like taking a picture of a puddle in a dessert and saying that the puddly has plenty of water.
