Okay now I'm venting (allthough I promised myself and you I'd stay away):

Nowhere have I written that we haven't got any crime in Denmark. It's just lower than in the USA. A simple fact. Which there are many reasons for. I'm not claiming than americans by any means are inherently more violent or evil than Danes.

But it seems to me that you are completely unable to make a sound argument. If I say that I don't think Cheyenne deserves to die, I'm all of a sudden in favor of animal torturing (not to say child molesting and murder). If I say that Denmark has lower crime rates, Denmark is all of a sudden Paradise on Earth, and so forth.

Furthermore you don't seem to get that just because something has a common denominator doesn't mean that the denominator leads to a certain something. Fx just because all people allegic to cats has cats as their common denominator doesn't mean that having cat's leads to allergy.

I suggest you go outside, open a beer and cool down for a bit. Because if you aren't just steaming, I am truly at a lack of words.
