Haitian journalists, please stop screaming Insecurity in Haiti just because a crime has been committed

Did you know? In the United States, an estimated 1,197,704 violent crimes occurred nationwide in 2015. How many violent crimes occurred in Haiti that same year?

There were an estimated 372.6 violent crimes per 100,000 inhabitants in the United States in 2015. How many violent crimes occurred in Haiti that same year per 100,000?

This data is direct from the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). fbi.gov

I really hate it when Haitian journalists start screaming "Insecurity in Haiti" every time there is a murder or homicide in Haiti. It is not insecurity, it is a crime and it happens in every country in the world except news reporters in those countries do not freak people out. They simply report the news without characterizing it as general chaos.

Over ONE million violent crimes occurs in the United States in one year, do you hear CNN screaming "Insecurity in the United States?"

So please, my Haitian journalists I am begging you, STOP IT!!!
