> I doubt the German or UK police would be bothered to care much either. At least in the US criminals eventually get caught and arrested if they persist.

Do US really has higher clearance rates and lower criminality as your comment implies or is that just a guess?

The US does not have a special high clearance rate. It's not better than typical for the OECD.

Its general crime rates are also roughly typical - median - for the OECD (including for most types of violent crime), except for murder of course as everyone knows.
