Actually as far as I can tell based on your supplied list France is safer than nearly every state in the country.
There doesn't seem to be any reason to continue debating with you cause you don't seem to have a clue what "crime rate" means. Hint: it is a number that is independent of population size.

I'm not going to go through the entire list. It's enough to say you are far more Likely to be murdered and/or raped in the US than in France.
Yes and we also have at least 2-4x the population so even with the same murder/ rape rates we would have a lot more of both occur.
And like I said with so many states it's kind of pointless to compare the median murder rates when they will be much different in different states.
So in some states you are surely more likely to be raped or murdered then in france but in other states it would be much less likely.
The reason I brought up size was the show how ridiculous it is to compare statistics from such a large country like the US with france.
I wouldn't be surprised if france is statistically safer then the US but that doesn't say much with so many different states spread out
"Per capita"
Also who the fuck cares about some random ass subjective index?

Which list? The wiki one? That is just for murder rates.
Mind showing me the data showing france is safer then every state?
Maybe I missed that somewhere or maybe you are just pulling it out of your ass like I lot of what you say
I know what crime rate means... You keep on sidestepping the point as always, keep on being condescending though that will get you far.

There would have to be 2,000 additional terrorist homicides in France per year for its murder rate to be equivalent to the US. By every metric, the us is much more violent and dangerous than france.
"by every metric" states one
okay

I didnt feel very safe in Europe. Cops walking around with assault rifles, people being tackles by undercovers in the bus station, canine units hunting through the parks, a bomb threat, people harassing me and stalking me, etc.
Thats one month in Europe. I had less drama living in the ghetto, hitchhiking or running with gangs in any given month in the US. Part of me wonders if those statistics are doctored.

lol cops walking around with assault rifles and How many citizens killed? Meanwhile the cops in the US kill more people than there are murders in France. The US is a violent, gun obsessed culture.

The point is they have the danger there to merit something which is virtually unthinkable in the US
You only see that out here if there's imminent danger, and Ive spent nearly 30yrs out here without seeing cops patrolling with assault rifles or having to evacuate a train because of a bomb.

It's not even the gun obsessed rednecks that do the murdering in the US - those areas are safe.. it's just shithouse inner city areas of the east/south/midwest - Baltimore/DC/stlouis/chicago/philly etc. We're not all down the shitter lol

Guns. Guns and more guns.
Nice try. If it's a racial thing, Why does the northeast have the lowest murder rate?
Gun ownership by region (percent of households with firearm) South 37 Midwest 35 West 34 Northeast 27
Percent of population that is African American: South 20 Northeast 12 Midwest 10 West 5
One of those sets correlates perfectly with murder rates and one doesn't at all.
