    That list has Qatar on it. Really? Qatar? The same place where foreign workers are worked to death. :confused:

    All things are relative. It's not only the absence of violence in one place, but just how violent others are.

    Big deal, it's like giving a guy with no hands a pat on the back because he never stole anything.

    But you can still enjoy the fact that nothing was stolen.

    That website is horribly written crap. Yet it is linked to from everywhere.

    Why is Ireland safe?

    With its rich historical sites, amazing green pastures and friendly people, it’s not surprising that Ireland is one of the most peaceful countries on Earth!

    That's right. All you need is (cliche alert) historical sites, greenness and friendliness and you get low crime.

    You may not be able to follow her logic on that but there is no faulting the logic on Denmark.

    Denmark tops the list of the most peaceful countries on Earth since it’s really a safe place to live..

    Mauritius sounds like an Asian person saying malicious.

    Coincidence? I think not!

    Pretty sure there's a few Danes howling politely right now. I like the Danes btw, a genuinely great bunch of lads.
