Look around you. Society is going in the crapper. People are out of
jobs.
Gangs abound.

What are things like on your planet?

Safer.

Really ??
Let's see
http://www.nationmaster.com/compare/...d-States/Crime

You are 25% more likely to be a crime victim in the UK than the US
You are 133% more likely to be the victim of assault in the UK than the US
Bribery is 16% higher in the UK than the US
There are 326 times more drug offenses committed in the UK than the US
(Having all those druggies around must make you safer too)
Americans feel 17% safer than residents of the UK
You have 125% more rape victims than the US
(That's YOUR definition of "safer" for your women..)

I don't know what YOUR definition of "safer" is
But the statistics put the lie to your claim

I notice too from your own link you left out the statistics about
murders comitted by firearms.
Just shows what a creeping liar/retard you are.
USA is fourth from the worst/topofthe list.
UK is thirtyninth.

You are nearly 700 times more likely to by murdered by gun in the USA
compared with the UK.

The USA is up there along with Colombia and South Africa.
You are four times more likely to be murdered by gun in the USA than
Mexico.

How is it that this is no surprise to anyone who has more than half a
brain?

Now go away and get an education you retard instead of spouting NRA
drivel on here.


Oh, FOAD, harry- stay out of the large urban areas (which aren't fit for
humans in any country), and your odds of getting shot are vanishingly small.
