It should be noted that, despite the headlines, crime is at the lowest level in history in the US. Violent crime is now less than a half of what it was in 1970. What is most askew is the incarceration rate which is all out of proportion due to the antiquated drug laws. I would go as far as to suggest that, if the drug laws were revised (like the repeal of prohibition), there would be a dramatic drop in crime. We should send the Puritans back to Europe then the crime rates in the US would fall and the crime rate in Europe would increase!

Crime rates are at the lowest in the US partially down to the legalisation of cannabis in 2 states. But you cannot compare crime rates as one crime doesnt equal another.
For example: Homicide rates are 4.7 times that in the US compared to the UK. Pickpocketing is rampant in parts of the UK, but id rather loose my wallet than my life.

exactly, that statement is ridiculous, for the crime rate involves even SOFTWARE PIRACY
On the other hand - murders with firearms: US
9.364
, UK total of
14
Your 4.7 homicide rate is only INTENTIONAL homicide rate, murder rate in US is
18 times
higher than in the UK.

"Crime rates are at the lowest in the US partially down to the legalisation of cannabis in 2 states."
This is absolutely provably false. Violent crime rates have been falling in the US since the 1980s - how would that have anything to do with pot legalization in 2 states recently?
Largely, it's believed to be the result of easy access to abortion.
