I think your LEOs do a better job catching the bad guys, so more arrests, more records of crimes. Ours might not do so well, so I think many crimes are never recorded here, and neither is the revenge. I don't look at other countries--most are pretty disgusting. For instance, in Mexico, 98% of political regions allow 12-year old girls to decide with whom they have sex. It's 14 years in that last state. 1 of 5 Mexicans now live in the U. S. of A., and think 14-year olds are legal rape victims, if not 12 year olds. Bit of a cultural shock when you see the number of Mexicans in prison here for raping children they thought were legal because they seem to think Mexican laws takes precedence. Be thankful for your sharks.
Actually, both U. S. of A. and N. Z. have been putting serious efforts into dropping crime rates, and it shows.
