I was watching a CNN special report thingy a few weeks ago about crime in Chicago, it focused particularily on the rash of murders among teens, mostly done by teens.
People seem to live without consequences for all but the most serious crimes these days...

Thats just a sign that our society is crumbling.

i live on the isle of wight

27 miles long 13 deep

like a diamond shape and to be honest its probably one of the safest places in the uk, never a shooting, stabbings are rare, get a good ol dust up most saturdays but only handbags

even the hoodies are shit, they give ya gob then leg it when you turn around!!!

but i dread to think of what it may end up like in 15-20 years

alan titchmarsh lives here though so might get him to do my garden

Where I live is rougth, we dont have Jehovas wittneses just Jehovas byestanders

...we have Jehova's Witnesses but my dog takes care of them

hahahaha

Where I'm from each household has it's own toilet so it's not a big deal if the the whole neighborhood goes to shit. Still, back when we had a community bathroom taking a dump after Thanksgiving dinner was a nightmare, so I can relate.

What about when no one wants to pitch in for toilet tissue?! Cheap bastards.

Anyway. I get home from work at about 3am and usually have to park about half a mile from my place and have no worries walking home.

I find that the States is a lot safer than the UK. Not sure if its cos they have guns here or people are generally less violent or maybe because I lived in shitty parts of London and now I live in nicer areas of the US.

I do find that crime here tends to be more within ones ethnic circle. Black on black, Hispanic on Hispanic and the only time I have had any bother is from some Northerners down my local English pub ::**. Luckily, I had a handful of change which I tossed on the floor. They soon forgot about me ;)

---

there were 23,000 reported american murders last year. The good parts here may be better than the good parts over at the UK, but I can assure you the bad parts here are A LOT worse.

---

i thought that, S*** they let just about anyone in here now, you know there have been a lo of reported cases of Tb breaking out coz of them mother f***** won don't belond here?

---

In the news recently there was a biker from a hells angel type gang got gunned down on the road coming from some motorbike meet up... in england... then last week the news hit about some 11 year old kid in liverpool got shot in the neck from someone passing by on a push bike...

now recently things have somewhat gotten worse where i live, there was an a shooting down the road, some months ago, but things in local towns or villages have seemed to got worse and the shooting here seemed to be an iscolated incedent...

anyhow i'm walking up to my local video shop tonight, (normaly out on a sat but S*** i to bad a come down from an office do last night to do anything today so planned a night in..)

anyhow there is a big crowd all around the high street where 2 pubs are, just a few seconds up the road from where i live... some guy who is form here and family lives here went nuts with a metal chain, he hit some guy with it a few times to the ground and kept on hitting him outside of the pub... it was early on in the day at the time and not many about, he kept on doing it untill luckily three guys run in to stop it... the guy on the floor is ok now the other done a runner, not sure if he got caught or not...

it took the police over an hour to get there!

it was only thursday i was saing to my mates it makes you apreciate sometimes living in a somewhat quiet place like this after we heard about the liverpool shooting... then this happens... I mean F*** i'm always around here outside the pubs dirnking in nice weather, butshit man it makes you think WTF when you find out there are guys now doing S*** like this for no F****** reason... i mean i can see now why S*** in the states is so bad at times... i know you guys got really relaxed gun laws... but when mother f***** are going around doing S*** like this no wonder people are packing, then using them when their head goes...

i mean S*** man fights happen and normaly they can get sorted out... but god damn when people go around hitting people with weapons or pulling out guns and S*** the mother f***** need to be executed, no F****** rehab, no pleading this and that and getting out... they do this S*** once F*** them, execute the mother f*****.

Everyone deserves a trial.

The area of the capital Cardiff that I now live in is pretty quiet and a nice place. The town of Caerphilly that I originally came from in the South Wales Valleys called Caerphilly was decent enough but at times could be like the Wild West. Not really guns but certainly violence at times.

Though in the early 90's an Ice cream van driver got shot during the day for playing his music loud after waking up a man who had been sleeping after a nightshift working. :o

I'd of done the same thing. If I would've came home from my tough factory job and I can't get any sleep because some fruity music is being blasted by some guy (probably a pedophile) who won't get a real job, i'd have the same reaction. Atleast he didn't shoot him over not doing the dishes (like someone around here did to their wife).

It is crazy how many areas are 'going bad'. Where I grew up, I'm one of only five in the neighborhood that didn't go to prison, and I suppose the percentage is nearly as high among the black and mexican guys. It was a rough place, but a good place, to grow up. Much changed in the mid-80s with the crack epidemic, though most that I knew were already making, selling and using speed before that. To many friends that disappeared or that are in prison over all that. Founding members of the AB came from there, as did the acting head of the Mexican Mafia, and a ranking member of the BGF. THAT was one hell of a high school class.
I lived in Phoenix, which is hell, except warmer. There is not, to my knowledge, one area in Phoenix where you can leave something outside overnight and not have to buy a new one the next day. Now I live in Montana. In Bozeman they have drug rings and gang graffiti. Butte, where I live, has always been kind of rough. In comparison it isn't much but...the cancer spreads.
Growing up many people I knew/know associated that 'cancer' with ethnic minorities. But in the early part of the century in this country the criminals were predominantly Jewish or Irish or Italian or whatever group happened to be the most 'have-not' at the time.
It is curious to me that so many places have problems with the biker gangs. I grew up a stone's throw from where the most famous of them was begun. We ran them out in the late 70s and early 80s over some transgression that had to do with the race wars in the state prisons at the time. They behave well if properly contained.

When I see these gangs now they remind me if you can remember The Bowry Boys, but with guns its not funny anymore
