That sort of depends on where you are, who you are, and what you are doing.

Not silly. Murder statistics are specific. Where are you when murdered; who are you, and what you are doing. Every state in the United States of America keeps this stuff; most countries do a tolerable job at numbers: don't sell the farm on the numbers. Some countiries just seem to invent murder numbers as they go along: sort of like executions. (still better than nothing)

Just for general purposes, you are probabaly going to be murdered by somebody you know, while you both are drinking, and of the same 'race' whatever that it, and less than 10 miles from where you live (lived); sort of like being in an automobile wreck, it happens close to home.

The question again: if you don't say where, when and what you are, it is not going to be answered but with glib babble.

OTHERWISE, your chances as a normal civilian in society can range from very high to as little as 1 out of 1,000,000. It depends where you live and who you are. For example, if you are currently living in a warzone and are a high ranked general or officer you have a high chance of being assassinated or killed. But if you're a normal civilian living in a suburb or large city, you have almost no chance of being murdered.

IN GENERAL, NON-SPECIFIC TERMS: Based on the most recent Uniform Crime Report (compiled by the FBI), you have about a .000054 chance per year (nationwide, local stats are varied). multiplying that by the average life span (about 70 years), you get about a .00378 chance of being murdered in your lifetime.
