[QUOTE="JaggaSingh, post: 2572405, member: 871689"] i found this comment by an individual (most likely an American) , on a UK news article - related to a stabbing. " Being American, I don't think we as tighly compacted like your British are, but I feel much safer on an American street than on a British one. The British often cite how much guns are floating around the USA, but most of them are in the hands of law abiding citizens who can defend themselves. In Britain, weapons are in the hands of criminals only, because self-defense is banned for use by law abiding citizens. " I kind of agreed with that persons comment, i've been to the USA like 12 times in my life time, and on each of those trips - guess what - i felt 'relieved, relaxed, happier and safer' roaming around the streets of NYC and LA at night lol maybe its because I grew up alongside jamaican brits in the UK, and warm to the US african american culture - and listen to hip hop even in my early 40s lol to me - the streets of LA and New york = safer than the ones in London. I feel like im on the edge all the time, and tense - always - when in London. Is it because the power is with the criminals in the UK and NOT with the law abiding citizens ? you tell me lol [/QUOTE]
