    Pretty sure thats sweden these Days
    But i gues considering they got 150x the population you might be right.


    Edit actually
    Rape statistics show the US far above India
    And sweden is competing with africa over the most it seems

    97% rapists in the US walk Free wow...

    Most rape in India goes unreported and that which is reported they are usually not convicted even if the woman is alive by the time the case goes to court. I don’t believe their official numbers.

    Don't try to deflect from your incorrect statement about India. You made a false statement. I called you on it. I provided you with a source that documents your claim is false. And now you claim I have zero idea of what I am speaking?

    Obviously, you cannot substantiate your claim with data. And BTW - undocumented anecdotes are not data.

    You said "India is the rape capital of the world." Firstly that is a non sequitur. A country is not a capital. Secondly, as I pointed out to you before, India has a lower incidence of rape than the US. And the highest incidence of rape is in southern Africa.

    I am not deflecting — their culture has a massive issue with rape. Look at anything beyond official numbers and it will become apparent.

    Feel free to educate yourself; https://www.dw.com/en/what-is-behind-indias-rape-problem/a-51739350 “India, thus, has been dubbed "the most dangerous country for women”

    It is just a saying mr English teacher.
    It has a ”lower reported incidence of rape than the US“

    The attempted syllogism seems to be: 1) Orange Man is bed; 2) India likes Orange Man; 3) India is bad.

    So? Let me get this straight.

    In a City of 8.6 Million People (in a Country of almost 1.4 Billion) Trump is jumping up and down because he can put 100,000 people into a Stadium?

    Wow. :roflol:

    Well, I can't really begrudge him.

    With His Current TRAINWRECK Administration, and given the way that his Daily Treasonous Behavior has been Desecrating America--He is entitled to take any "Joy" in even small things.

    I hope he has a good time in India. Godspeed. :salute:

    If the 100,000 number (your number) is accurate, that is about 30,000 more than are in a Superbowl stadium. Pretty darn impressive. And just how many people do you think a large stadium can hold?

    That Stadium Holds About 100,000.

    The new stadium will be the largest cricket stadium in the world with a seating capacity of 100,000 spectators will be renovated with the cost $100,000,000 dollars

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sardar_Patel_Stadium


    Trump's appearance is sort of a Grand Opening.

    So, Good for Him.:salute:

    Melbourne Cricket Ground has a capacity of about 100,000. That is why the opening of the Patel Stadium is a big deal. It breaks that capacity record. India is cricket nuts and the locals would attend the opening of that Stadium no matter what else is happening. Trump being there is a coincidental sideshow. Donald is piggybacking.

    Who has called for a boycott of India — actually, since the dozen or so spam / fraud calls I get a day are from there I will happily join a boycott against them. China also.
    I usually try to buy American, Canadian, German or Italian.

    Of course it happens there. There are also temples where people bring their expulsive by-products as offerings to the gods.

    Hillary went there as First Lady for a farewell tour and took 2000 people with her on the taxpayer's dime.

    Exactly, BL.

    Anybody could fill that stadium, just based on the curiosity factor of the new upgrades.

    But, of course Trump's Infantile Ego thinks "It is All About Me".

    Trump could attend the Super Bowl and then go on Twitter bragging about "Everybody was there to see me".

    Donald Trump?:roflol: What an IDIOT.:roflol:

    Well; what I've implied is that there are many countries in the world that have something going against them and you just can't single out something and proclaim the country being just BAD! But it's what you're doing.
