@somercet 'ordinary Swedish crime'

@nerthos "Good, clean Swedish crime! Almost wholesome!" I think most people would rather be a crime victim in the First World over the Third, no?

@somercet Honestly it depends, the whole "first/third world" thing doesn't really work nowadays to classify a lot of countries. I'd say that one would rather be a victim of the average crime in a civilized society than in an uncivilized one. Economic development doesn't have much to do with crime brutality, with the exception of dirt poor or war torn countries.

@nerthos I'm sure the rate of horrific crimes are correlated in inverse proportion to society's wealth, just as I'm sure the number of amputations is.

@somercet Not at all. For example you see a whole lot more torture, gang violence and other violent crime in USA than you see in Uruguay, despite the latter having a much smaller economy and $ per capita.

Not so different: @nerthos

@somercet That really only gives you data on crime in cases per capita, not severity.
