> Wait a second friend, first you claim "basically no crime, no guns", then when confronted with the facts, instead of taking accountability and correcting, you move the goalposts to some high-crime US city.
OP is right, if those are the worst things to happen in the past 12 years, that's effectively 0 crime.
Especially when you consider that so much of what you listed were actually terrorists attacks conducted by an organization that hasn't conducted a foreign terror attack since winning control of their own territory from foreign occupiers.

If that's "zero crime" from your frame of reference, then what are the cities that have actual zero crime? -1000 crime? NaN?
I'd also be curious to know, if for example you or a family member would have been a victim in one of those violent incidents that don't happen in other EU cities, if you'd still have considered it "zero crime".
Is it one of those cases that when people see so much violent crime it's just a statistic that they had waive it easily? Because I can't.
As a passerby, I'm honestly not sure what pedantic hill you think you're dying on.
Basically no crime was pretty obvious.
>Basically no crime was pretty obvious.
Then please argument using logic why it's obvious. I explained why it isn't oblivions, as per HN rules.
Subjectively sure, each to his own, it might be obvious to you if you're ideologically aligned with the poster, but for good faith debate, you'll need to add actual arguments to convince the other people of your take. Imagine telling the judge "it's obvious your honor" as your only argument to why you're in the right.

No hill dying here, I'm just pushing for facts over blind ideologies.
