Highest Violent-Crime Rate? It Ain't the USA

I was skeptical when I heard--from the usual suspects--that the US' violent-crime rate was off the charts.

It is, compared to some places...

Britain’s violent crime record is worse than any other country in the European union, it has been revealed.

Official crime figures show the UK also has a worse rate for all types of violence than the U.S. and even South Africa – widely considered one of the world’s most dangerous countries.
