I was cruising through extranosalley, a gun blog when I saw a question about Japan...and the answer mentioned the age of criminals and how crime is a young man's game...
so...that led me to look up some stats...and there it was.......Japan is a country of old people......
The majority of their population is over 25, the age where violent criminal behavior starts to end....
% of the population in the age of crime...15-24..... 9.7%
and that is probably the leading reason Japan has so little crime..besides their culture and their police powers....
