                          That's exciting to hear! Even if he's not dancing the jig yet, at least they're giving the Reaper a good run for his money.

                            Hasn't this been observed in other nations as well. I think the Nordic countries had some pretty good research into this.

                              Their study was more general - the fewer Americans on the streets, the safer things got 😉

                                    I'm not sure what you mean by this? are you accusing Americans of being something? if so, what?
