Saturday was a banner day in El Salvador, because as far as anyone can tell, not a single person was violently killed. That may not sound like much of an accomplishment, but for El Salvador it is; the last time the country had a homicide-free day was 2009, Reuters reports. The country is plagued by drug violence, and this year has averaged about 18 homicides per day. Its UN-listed homicide rate is 66 per 100,000 people, among the world's highest.
