We have more violence since we have more people walking around who can not tell right from wrong or could care less.

Also do you know in the 30's to 60's we use to keep nut case locked up away from the public and today they are free to walk and drive among us.
But certainly when you look at data spanning different countries and they add up all congruently together, it's not as dissmable. While it's not verifiable to certainty, that's what most Scientific Theories are like. "Theories" backed by very probably data.

I'd imagine that we should see similar affects in China/India as they are over-crowded and demographically dense with a large exposure to industrial pollution (certainly lead). Let's see if their violent crime charts rise and fall the same way.
