I'm sure no one really managed to get around to counting all the people murdered in the North African countries as no one is dumb enough to go there.

Hmmm looking at the SA numbers I sure as hell know they are cooked.

South Africa (excluding attempts) [41][42] 50 48 48 43 40 40 41 39 37 34 34

No way in hell our numbers went down.

I think the guys who are trying to kill each other are failing. Probably think the guy is dead then gets taken to hospital and somehow manages to live foiling their attempts and therefore the South Africa (excluding attempts)

That might be true if it was not for the other more important numbers/facts....

How many of those murders get solved vs local open cases.

Most of the murders in NZ was based on people knowing the victims as well, ie: lover or friend, making those murders more a crime of passion vs ours.

True, The cops have come to the party now the judicial and prison system need to do the same.

Most murders here are done by people they know too.

If, for example, a husband and wife visiting NZ had been attacked, beaten, then her raped and him shot for a cellphone, then we could say we're comparing apples with apples. This is just laughable.

I think people leave to Aus because their crime is a lot less likely to be violent.
I'd much rather have the chance of someone stealing a few of my things vs having my family beaten, raped, stabbed, drowned, burned, tortured etc etc etc for a R2.00 coin which is essentially what it is coming down to.
