  1.  @mr.nemesis6442  You're American I take it? You're not going to do that "violent crime" statistic about the UK are you, because Americans are constantly misusing that data. Violent crime in the UK isn't really far higher than other countries, the UK simply has a far wider definition of what constitutes a "violent crime". In the US, and many other countries, "violent crime" consists only of four, very serious categories - murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. In the UK, "violent crime" consists of dozens of categories - it's recorded as a violent crime in the UK if you push someone off a bicycle.

  2. You people are really really dense. You think armed police don't exist in the UK? We just don't send them into schools to deal with yet another school-shooting the way the United States does.

  3.  @mr.nemesis6442  Delusional lol. The latest data comparing the two cities was 2017. The homicide rate per 100,000 population stood at 1.2 in London and 3.4 in New York. And every year prior to that, New York was worse than London. But the moment London had one terrible month, American newspapers pounced on it and said "Look! London is now worse than NYC" - but of course it isn't.

  5. Well, be sensible. If they'd had guns instead of knives, don't you think the death toll would have been slightly higher?

  6. You think maybe that's why they worded it the way they did?
