Bodies of Australian surfers found in Sinaloa

Please do not take this wrong. I am not attempting to throw the US under the bus. Just a statement of fact. Not trying to compare apples to oranges or anything else. For informational purposes only. I have posted this before. According to the FBI and the US Dept of Justice reports there are about 38,000 carjackings in the US each year on average. By their definition they are not talking about truck hijacking or car theft but specifically a car taken from its occupants by force - often using a weapon - weapon is often a gun. I forget the number of injuries or deaths in these statistics. It can all be found online but I am not going to search for it again. These things can happen to anyone just about anywhere. Their are gangs in the US too.
