He stated "According to Interpol, crime's been on the rise in the Netherlands the past few years". And although the numbers don't reach up to 2003, that's a fair conclusion to draw.

"The Netherlands has more of a problem than America" isn't.

Also, why the hell are you comparing 2001 to 1998? To make this slightly less useless, let's compare 1998 to 1997:






















Violation

U.S.

Netherlands
Murder6.8010.87
Total Sex offenses (including Rape)35.9252.81
Serious Assault382.04242.77
Theft (all kinds)4497.985302.51
Aggravated Theft1105.633205.29
Robbery and Violent Theft186.0592.28
Breaking and Entering979.573100.40



A question: What the hell are you trying to argue on here, anyway? That we're worse off because of gun laws?
