Where debating everything under the sun is only the beginning

Now, 8,000 some odd is still way too high--- but it's NOT 10,000. Considering the population is some 300,000,000 or thereabouts--- Still too high, but dropping is good.

See here: http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2014/11/10/fbi-report-confirms-crime-fell-while-gun-purchases-soared-in-2013/

In the past 20 years, for instance, the murder rate in the United States has dropped by almost half, from 9.8 per 100,000 people in 1991 to 5.0 in 2009. Meanwhile, robberies were down 10 percent in 2010 from the year before and 8 percent in 2009.

I have some hundred-year-old photographs showing what a ghastly place Glasgow has been.

I believe that genie is out of the bottle and they've moved on.

.....Since I have been on here and Opera must be 40,000 ex-colonists shot to death. Keeps you on the top as you like to be.

Here's some numbers fer ya......

One wonders how many Glaswegians have been murdered via knifing since 2004?

Well Nick, a quick glance & peek unearthed this lil nasty tidbit RJ would cringe over from The Other Side of the Pond, Glasgow way.

BTW......If I had ta choose how ta go, I'd choose a bullet in the brain over a
rusty ole dull Glaswegian Shiv in the gut anyday!

  for the research sir.  

Hmmm...... Strathclyde/Glasgow seem to have the highest numbers of knife-crime in all of Scotland, with Glasgow City itself having the highest percentage (35 per 10,000). That's really abominable.

Good thing I live in nice, safe Vegas instead of Glasgow, where they have the shanking people, barbaric mindset all the while sipping Irn Bru in lieu of a man's softdrink such as Coca-Cola. One has to wonder how many knives there are in Glasgow. I'd wager at least 4 million, in that one city alone!

Kind of ironic coming from a man in a Windy City alive with crime in the last couple of years. you couldn't even answer my thread a while back about people tortured by the police department, etc. We do not have police running about shooting people like shooting range practice.  You all do conform to the practice I have also previously stated that when you mention all the internal hypocrisy in America whilst boring the world to bits none of you answer the points yo go along with waffle, avoid answering the challenges so keep it up as you are doing a wonderful job of vindicating my points"!

A country with bulging jails, a wide para-military police gunning folk down and getting away with it we don't appreciate how lucky we are being away from the gun mad good ole US of A.

A UNITED Nations report has labelled Scotland the most violent country in the developed world, with people three times more likely to be assaulted than in America.......

I've lived in a couple of bad Chicago neighborhoods, never got threatened with a gun even once.

Kind of iro
