It really shows how the bulk of the casualties have been in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Mexico (the major conflicts). Also South Sudan in 2014 was very terrible. --- I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister. <cite>Sativa_Rose posted [p:883387472] in Current Wa...

Street crime is not considered. If you want to look at that just look at the list of countries by homicide rate. A lot of the countries at war (Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan particularly) won't have those casualties included in these numbers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate --- I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister. <cite>Sativa_Rose posted [p:883387984] in Current Wa...
