If the deep fried Mars Bars don't get you, the natives will.

The recent report from the United Nations that states Scotland is the most violent country in the developed world will not be going away in a hurry. However the story and ensuing debate appears to have made not even the slightest impact on the Guardian while The Herald too appears to have little to say on the matter. The BBC have somehow managed to hide the Scottish Executive's response away in a corner on the Scottish Politics page. Even taking into account the argument regarding the statistics used, I would have expected much more to be made of this.
This blog entry "Cause of Death: Welfare State, cont - Part II: Scotland gets Sailered" is a flavour of the sort of commentary I would expect to see.
So why the silence from the media?
