COMMENTARY     

John (Australia)
7th August 2007
How comes South Africa is not on the list, South Africa has one of the highest murder rates in the world and alot of the murders are committed by youths and Jamaica only having 2 murders a year committed by youths is a load of bull, there are hundreds of murders committed every year by youths in Jamaica.
