Damn! I hate it when people doubt my veracity and THEN ask ME for
information that they have already been prejudged. ;)

Check out http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/ and look
at the death rates for the UK, france, Germany, Russia... etc.

Where it is true that the death rate for Australia and Canada are lower
than the USA, the USA comes in below the worlds average for the number of
deaths per 1000 persons.  However, there are other socioeconomic factors
(such as over-crowding) that effect the statistical models for violent
crime. 

If you're not familiar with the subject, you might be interested in the
theory that man, as a primate, is far more prone to violence when herded
into dense groups, with other primates.  It is only a theory when applied
towards man, though.
