#1 phil_b: I doubt that there will be a sharp reduction that is directly related to the WOT. Crime rates have been declining at a steady pace since smart people were allowed to implement their ideas in the '90s (at least).

Certainly, the tougher restrictions on, for example, immigration in the context of WOT will smoke out criminals that are not terrorists, but that will be marginal to the overall trend.

#2 So does anybody think our reduced crime rates will cause the other "civilized" nation to admit that maybe (1) decent citizens owning guns and (2) keeping the criminals in jail might reduce their own crime rates?

Anybody?
