Question

Why does it appear that the U.S. has a higher number of serial killers compared to other countries?

Answer 1

Because it is so damn easy to get hold of a gun. In the UK, the only people who own guns are rich country gentlemen who hunt birds.

Answer 2

I think its because we invest so much into the study of this area, we have the resources to back it up, technology and monetary. Not that the rest of the world if lacking by any means, but also maybe we just don't focus on other "peoples" problems.

Answer 3

cuz we have more cereal than other countries;) LOL. I heard the latest cereal killer recently finished off a whole box of Cheerios;) LOL. . Seriously, it's mostly due to broken families, neglect, lack of proper discipline, and various types of child abuse that creates these monsters throughout our decaying nation.

Answer 4

"Australia has the highest number of serial killers, per capita, of any country."

Answer 5

we don't, the overseas killers know how not to get caught and they don't have some mommy complex that wants to be punished

Answer 6

THE MEDIA could be one or the fact that America is a melting pot so serial killers can consist of any race known to man....

Answer 7

It may seem that way because it makes the media here. Stories from other countries don't make the news here as often and this can give the erroneous belief that the US has more serial killers. Its the same thing when people say that all serial killers are white men. This is a fallacy promoted by the media. That theory was blown to bits the the snipers on the east coast!

Answer 8

TV. You just hear about it more. We have news outlets that tend to sensationalize everything, and present only bad news. "If it Bleeds, It Leads!"
