Maybe Russian culture isn't as toxic as American culture. Do they have television, magazine or billboard ads promoting pedophilia the way they do in the US? What about their movies? Does their government break up families the way they do here? Asking for a friend.

There seems to be a lot of child porn produced in the Ukraine. There's a lot of teen porn produced in St. Petersburg, Russia. Look up the subject of pornography laws online. If I remember correctly selling pornography to Russians is illegal, but it isn't illegal to produce porn. All kinds of bizarre laws that strongly suggest things aren't what they appear to be in our world. I'm surprised more people don't discuss this subject. Porn and laws about it, I mean.

I don't know much about religion in Russia, but I assume their church is different from the vatican?

Only 3000 kids went missing in Russia in 2018. http://archive.is/YffBS

The article title says 3,000 but but then claims 49,000

An average of 49,000 children go missing in Russia every year. About 10% of reported cases go through voluntary organisations such as “Search for Missing Children”.

You also need to take into consideration the population of each country or countires when comparing any and all stats. Russia has a pop. of ~143.9 million. The US pop. is ~329.08 million.

Using those numbers these are the per capita 100,000.

USA 129

Russia 34

Are the numbers based on actual missing children or reports of missing children?

You're being misleading:

According to the FBI, in 2018 there were 424,066 NCIC entries for missing children. In 2017, the total number of missing children entries into NCIC was 464,324.
This number represents reports of missing children. That means if a child runs away multiple times in a year, each instance would be entered into NCIC separately and counted in the yearly total. Likewise, if an entry is withdrawn and amended or updated, that would also be reflected in the total.

This number represents reports of missing children. That means if a child runs away multiple times in a year, each instance would be entered into NCIC separately and counted in the yearly total.

When you're comparing two things use the same metrics. You're counting the amount of reports for the US but not for Russia. The amount of reported cases in Russia was/is 49,000, not 3,000.

These are two different police/investigative systems as well, so things like what constitutes a missing person could be different altering wether or not it is included in the total reports.

Thanks for the data.

Most "missing children" are 13 year old nigresses running off with their 20-year-old boyfriends. Or a divorced man with his own children. Does Russia have the same incidence of divorce?
