Be thankful for your sharks.
By the way, New Zealand suffers about 108 crimes per year per 1000 people, the U. S. of A. suffers about 41 crimes per year per 1000 people. I suppose New Zealand feels safe since you don't live there. We have many people like that here. They are called "victims". I guess it is just too easy to make statistics lie.

Interesting stats! But are we just reporting more crimes? I mean look at the list and some countries show low crime which I doubt is all crimes etc.
Interesting non the less!
