move to Wyoming...We have on of the lowest rates of violent crime in the nation, and the world.
Steve:
Our murder rate in Australia is a tad lower than yours. You had 9 murders in Wyoming in 2006, which equals 1.75 per 100,000. In Australia we had 1.73 per 100,000 nation-wide (including our big cities).
Here, concealed carry other than for security or specialised employment reasons is illegal in all states, and handgun ownership is very strictly controlled (ie. minimum 12 attendances per year at pistol clubs, probation periods, etc). Nobody carries.
...so how do we explain that!
