Sceala Irish Craic Forum Discussion:     Ireland safest country in europe

Today will see the reporting of a new study by the world health organisation ..Ireland will be shown to be the least violent country in all of europe.
Can you argue with statistics ... the latest world health organisation statistics are interesting to say the least. I did not believe the report ..at face value.
After studying the report and ..putting them in perspective ..of the stated headline ..I have to accept that the figures do speak for themselves .. those of us in Ireland ..are living in the safest nation in Europe .. for now.
The world health organisation conclusions are based upon ..research in the comparative studies of ..the murder and assault rates across 27 european countries.
Of the western and deemed modern euro nations ..Finland and Scotland were the places ..not to live in peace .. Finland has 1.96 killings per 100,000 people, while the Scottish rate is 1.75.
In Ireland, the figure is just ..0.32.
So this is good news ..our children are in theory safer living in Ireland than anywhere else in Europe ..we should be happy ..if not congratulate ourselves ..on that statistic.
There is one set of hidden figures that would make complacency foolish ..these are figures that ..may indicate ..what is coming into Ireland.
The hidden figures are the crime statistics ..especially the murder rates ..from the eastern nations of the new eu .. Lithuania ..Estonia ..Latvia ..the baltic states .. who continue to flood into Ireland ..these nations have very high crime statistics in comparison ..would you have guessed they had ..murder rates more than double that of the United States ..or over 5 times higher than Scotland .. who in comparison ..must be like a children's play group ..amazing and revealing statistics.
Another world health organisation headline statistic that caught my full attention was ..More killed by suicide than war
Nearly a million people take their own lives every year ..more than those murdered or killed in war. ..world health organisation figures show a suicide takes place somewhere in the world every 40 seconds. ..while men make up most suicides ..more women attempt to take their own lives. ..there are an estimated ..10 to 20 million attempted suicides each year. .. Lithuania tops the suicide league as well.
