    In 2007 there where:

    301,621,157 people in the US
    11,251,828 Total CRIMES
    1,408,337 Violent (seperate from murders)
    16,929 Murders (not included in violent)
    855,856 Aggrivated Assault - a reckless attack with intent to injure seriously (as with a deadly weapon)
    2,176,140 Burglaries - Lowest since 1991

    This gives a .47%violent crime rate in America ((1,408,337+16,929)/301,621,157)

    In 2005 there were:
    419,640 - Non fatal Gun crimes
    8,478 - Handgun deaths

    UK Crimes

    In 2007 there were:
    60,975,000 - Total Population (estimate)
    1,045,369 Violence crimes
    621,958 Burglaries
    3,810,971 Total Crimes

    This gives a 1.7% violent crime rate (1,045,369/60,975,000)

    http://www.statistics.gov.uk/CCI/nugget.asp?ID=6

    So the UK has a crime rate roughly 3.61 times worse than the US in violent crime rates.

    Does fear of being shot deter criminals in the U.S.? Are citizens of the U.K. better at reporting crimes?
