BF2S Forums Why does crime happen so often in Australia?

Drink driving was a big problem, but not so much anymore.

Of course, the state governments seem determined to make it into an issue again by removing designated drivers.......................

Did Australia ban Grand Theft Auto (one of them, I don't remember which)?  I think it was Australia some time ago.

I think it was San Andreas, but only after 'Hot Coffee' came out. Which is kinda weird when you look at all the 'x' rated mods for Oblivion, and nothing is said about that...

They are doing pretty well with murders per capita, compare these stats.  Colombia has 15 times more murders per capita than US, and 41 times more murders than Australia.

Jesus Christ 15 times more murders than us!! That is a huge number considering the two populations!!

Colombia is a fucked up country. . . the drug cartels basically run the show, and if you cross them, YOUR DEAD! Sad state of affairs. . .

I thought Australia was such an innocent little enclave out in the pacific where aborigines and white people cohabitate in harmony. . . guess not! lol

They are jackin' cars like its going out of style!! I guess the spawn of criminals (former penal colony) and their actions don't "fall to far from the tree" eh. . .

If i were you, id really be running for the hills right now. Your country invaded Iraq, got into a major war(s) in which you killed thousands or your own people, G.W.B is just a complete and utter dumbass, and you are the fattest nation in the world. I don't mean to affend but i mean to point out how hypocritcal you are being right now. Correct me if i am wrong.

I never said I was the biggest fan of my country, and believe it or not, I'll probably be living in Canada in about 10 years.  The company I work for has some jobs up there.

10 years, what is with the long wait.  Canada could use a person like you.

True...  but the cost of moving is a bit more than I can deal with at the moment.  I need a passport as well.

Don't worry, Major, I'll try harder to move in that direction.  I know you'd prefer it.

-1 for not getting the words 'per capita'. You do know that it means 'per person', right? The US isn't too bad though, however it's up there with the lower-GDP nations.

Though that graph makes interesting reading compared with this.

call me stupid, but maybe one of the reasons is because in the US guns are legal, so store owners can defend themselves from robberies, and in australia and UK they are banned........ and for car theft, idk, maybe there are lots of rich people with sweet cars that get stolen all the time?? lol idk

This is a 2003 report but it says the cost of crime cost Australia 32 Billion dollars. That's an awful lot considering you gdp isn't it (5percent)? http://www.aic.gov.au/media/2003/20030409.html

....this is the second thread in as many weeks, supposedly showing official statistics highlighting every country as ruined and fugged up....except america...

What a load of shit...and what a self righteous continent....The US are on their Roman empire "high" at the moment and are in overdrive, trying to ruin the reps of every one else but themselves....ruining other cultures so as to seem superior....

Crime in Australia is manufactured/created by the US....

.....Rape became commonplace here in Aust. as soon as the internet arrived(surprise surprise), mens(esp. young mens) respect for woman(esp. non rich women) here deteriorated even more, immigration was increased on a society already in racial flux, worthy jobs were made impossible to obtain to all but the best looking people, racial hatred constantly fostered through Tv.......hell, tv even made an announcment a few years ago that depression is going to rise to 75% of the pop. soon......no reason given, they just seem to know it would....funny that...

you see... if you expose the individual to constant change, you will confuse them(as a person or as a society).

From there you can bully them by "letting them know"they lack the skills for the modern(changing) society, then you either sell them that which they already had, or make them give up something important(religion,marriage,love,fulltime work) in exchange for something they do not need(which is detrimental to them) like computer addiction, porn, "cool"crime, casual jobs, loveless life.....

Now when you try to bullshit someone(or an entire society) constantly, and they can tell...they get pretty pissed off....         and that will lead to violence (tv constantly feeds violent instincts)

So the anger is there, the knowledge of violent acts is there, the racial indifference is there, the confusion is there........

America(and the other rich elites) want a world where they alone are the priveliged, wasting the last of the worlds resources alone, while everyone else is reduced to "human waste"

Its obvious the industrial age is over and there's millions of working class worldwide that they(the rich) have NO use for......
So, to dispose of them and to help the class system along, they are using tv to make particular people worldwide(non beautiful)hate themselves (then provoke destroying themselves/their life)....

AUSTRALIA IS THE BEST COUNTRY, THE u.s IS THE ASS END OF THE WORLD....everyone knows it...

Are you high?

America has certainly had it's fair share of "America bashing" threads. All I can say is it's about time our country got one.
Though my natural patriotism is going into override to prove that these statistics are wrong. Because I myself, have never been a victim of crime (probably only at school when someone little shit stole my stationary equipment).
In all, I think that someone who creates a post like this ^^^, is only reinforcing what International Folk are already thinking about those statistics.

lol at your small brain...lol. Nice one trying to pass rape off as a side effect of the internet too. everyone knows that Australia is filled with arrogant asses like yourself. There is no best country dipshit...and you really shouldn't be talking about crime as Australia was founded by criminals. So you see, crime in australia is manufactured by Australians because they cant tell fantasy from reality (the internet porn for example and violent TV as well). Have a nice day.

When I opened the thread about shooting in US, it only was to make a point in the firearms issue, not to make a comparison.  This thread is another "My country is better than yours".

Impossible. A thread opened to investigate an aspect of a certain country invites replies to compare with others.
