Good day gentlemen
It's said on the World platform, "the poors are 'at least' a begger-thief- and 'cheat'." 🕳️

Here, how we see the above South Asia's imprisonment rate map, post#1, representing the crimes worth sending a person to Jail?
As compared to USA's imprisonment rate? In above Map, post#1, the topic 🕳️
🇮🇳🇧🇩🇵🇰

The above Jailing rate, map of first post#1, doesn't count criminals of those small offences, which are worth a ticket/fine only 👍
🇮🇳

further to the above post#76,

Research consistently shows that immigrants in the United States have lower incarceration rates and are less likely to commit crimes than individuals born in the U.S..
The claim that immigrants are inherently criminal is not supported by data, a finding that has remained consistent for over a century across the US, including the West.

The Americas generally have the highest homicide rates per 100,000 inhabitants, driven by high gang-related violence in South America and the Caribbean.
Africa often holds the second-highest rates, particularly regarding female homicide, while Asia and Europe consistently report the lowest homicide rates globally.

Homicide
Rates by Region (Approximate Figures):

Americas: The highest regional homicide rates are in Latin America and the Caribbean, with nations like Jamaica (53.3 per 100k) exceeding global averages. In 2023, Mexico and the USA recorded significant total murders, contributing to the continent's high ranking.

Africa: Features high, varied homicide rates, with South Africa (34.0 per 100k) among the highest, driven by social inequality and structural issues.
Oceania: Rates are moderate, but vary between nations.

Asia: Consistently reports the lowest homicide rates per capita, with nations like Singapore showing extremely low rates. 👍

Europe: Features the lowest regional homicide rates, with most countries under 1–2 per 100,000.

Key Trends:
Organized Crime: Nearly 40% of global homicides are connected to organized crime, with a majority occurring in the Americas.

Gender Violence: The rate of females killed by family members is highest in Africa (approx. 2.7–3 per 100k), followed by the Americas. 👎

Volatilty: Rates are not static; for instance, Ecuador experienced a 407% increase in homicides from 2016 to 2022.
