There are murderers murdering every day in Toronto or so, but they are NOT counted, because they are not caught !

I think they count the number of crimes commited, not the number of criminals

Yep !
I think it might have something to do with the easy access of guns here in the US.
And.... the fact that we really don't have very good services here for the mentally ill.
They just dump them back on the streets and wish for the best.
Of course you have the drug problem.
It is a not an easy fix.

There are plenty that are never caught here too.
I would think they do keep records of the number of people that were murdered there
I'm talking about the murder rate statistics...... not the conviction rate.

I agree. There are many mentally ill people out there that do not get the help they need.
No, not an easy fix at all, not at all.
