  I would like to see some credible references to that. 11 million people
is like nuking New York and a good chunk of its surroundings (New York
has a population of something like 8 million). Each year.

  Given that the US has a population of about 300 million, that kind of
murder rate would make it deserted in about 27 years.

  In Finland about 140 murders are committed each year.
