Structural factors for a single population out of dozens of distinct ones to kill, rape, rob, loot, riot, at rates 10x+ higher than others.

Funny how the same factors end up applying in Brazil, Europe, and even Japan.

If you sort by descending rate of murder, you will see at the top it's literally just Caribbean and African countries, as well as South-American countries with significant populations of black people.

Maybe it's not a US-specific structural problem after all.

In fact, every demographic has higher crime rates in America than comparable countries. White Americans are much, much more violent than Europeans, Asian Americans are more violent than Asians, and black Americans are way more violent than Africans. The only ethnic group with lower crime rates in the USA is Latinos, which is mostly an indictment of Central America. Must be the radioactive water messing up the genes!

There are also issues with American culture more broadly, that as you note affect all demographics. As a country we have always emphasized freedom and independence; I generally like this view, but it does lead to some problems as well.

Why isn't West Virginia, a dirt poor state that's almost fully white, a crime ridden state?

Truly disappointing.
