I once read that the average person will walk past 16 murderers in their lifetime.

16 people that have committed murder already, or that will go on to act on thoughts of murder?

I bet the number is way higher online

Id hear gunshots at leeeaaaasst once a week in LA you start to know what a car backfire a firework and a gun shot sounds like pretty quick its got a quick pop pop pop sound

Probably a lot but I've been to many major cities L.A., New York, Chicago, Seattle, Washington D.C., Atlanta I've probably walked past far more than 16 in my lifetime

Murderers can act like anyone else and adapt to society rules except for their felonies. i would say that number is very low and even higher online.

Lots , when I was just out of school they had me doing criminal work as a public defender to learn the business

100's. These people are deranged.

I've hung out with a lot more than that tbh

A high school friend murdered two men. A former employee served time for murder. I was in the jury pool for two others. That only leaves a dozen more, and I probably did pass them somewhere.

Do you consider people who killed people in war murderers?

🤔 I lived in a pretty dangerous city for a number of years, so I probably walked by 16 a year 😅

Only know I once unknowingly lived with one. Found out months after she left.

My friend was dating a murderer. He even served time but not enough!

This gets me worried 😖

At least one lol

Many.
But considering where I live, probably more in RL.

None, realistically. I don't believe that it's that common, particularly if we're talking about culpable homicide.

I used to be friends with a guy who killed a man after a night out, way back in 1999, I was a witness at the trial, I'm very thankful that I went home that night before all this happened

He got 9 months for manslaughter, he pushed him into the River Liffey in Dublin

Probably way more online I would think
