England>America

If their food was better tasting and their teeth a bit more straight, they'd rule the world again.  In all honesty, the English should just steal French cuisine and some nice Jewish dentists and some German engineers.  They'd win all over the fucking place.

are you serious? lol.

england is so far in decline it will probably disappear in 100 years

Their crime rate is far far lower, their infrastructure is far better, they don't have the poverty North america does, better education.


you rag on the US a few days ago saying how dumb everyone is , now you are saying Europe is worse, becasue some dumbass didn't do his research about a gun?

England and Wales have the highest crime rate among the world's leading economies, according to a new report by the United Nations.

The survey, which is likely to prove embarrassing to David Blunkett, the Home Secretary. shows that people are more likely to be mugged, burgled, robbed or assaulted here than in America, Germany, Russia, South Africa or any other of the world's 20 largest nations. Only the Dominican Republic, New Zealand and Finland have higher crime rates than England and Wales.

According to the comparison of international crime statistics produced by the UN's Office for Drug Control and Crime Prevention, England and Wales had 9,766 crimes for every 100,000 people in the year 2000. America had 8,517, South Africa 7,997, Germany 7,621 and Russia 2,022.

During the period 1998-2000, Britain went from fifth to fourth worst in the world league table. An analysis of total recorded crime figures before 1998 also suggests that England and Wales have moved sharply up the league table since Labour came to power in 1997. Crimes fell from 5.5 million in 1993 to 4.5 million in 1997. By 1999, total crimes had risen again to 5.3 million.

Last night Oliver Letwin, the shadow home secretary, said: "This does rather blow a hole in David Blunkett's claim that New Labour has crime under control. It is a damning picture."

The UN reports also shows that England and Wales are the second-worst places in the world for assaults, with 851 people assaulted per 100,000, and seventh for burglaries and car theft, with 1,579 burglaries per 100,000 population.

Criminologists believe that a note of caution needs to be introduced into analysis of the data, because of the different ways in which UN member countries record crimes.

A Home Office spokesman said that officials had not yet seen the report and so could not comment

It's funny because they think the same about the States...

ok i did the research for you

http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/html/cjusew96/highs.htm

#  Since 1981, an offender's risk of being caught, convicted, and sentenced to incarceration has risen in the United States for all six measured crimes (murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, motor vehicle theft) but has fallen in England for all but murder (figures 43-48).

# U.S. crime rates -- whether measured by surveys of crime victims or by police statistics -- generally fell in the early 1980's, rose thereafter until around 1993, and then fell again (figures 1-10). For most U.S. crimes (survey estimated assault, burglary, and motor vehicle theft; police-recorded murder, robbery, and burglary), the latest crime rates (1996) are the lowest recorded in the 16-year period from 1981 to 1996. By comparison, English crime rates as measured in both victim surveys and police statistics have all risen since 1981. For half of the measured English crime categories, the latest crime rates (1995 for rates from victim surveys; 1996 for rates from police statistics) are the highest recorded since 1981 (figures 1-10).

As a result of different crime trends in the two countries --

# the U.S. robbery rate as measured in the victim survey was nearly double England's in 1981, but in 1995 the English robbery rate was 1.4 times America's (figure 1)

# the English assault rate as measured in the victim survey was slightly higher than America's in 1981, but in 1995 the English assault rate was more than double America's (figure 2)

# the U.S. burglary rate as measured in the victim survey was more than double England's in 1981, but in 1995 the English burglary rate was nearly double America's (below, and figure 3 of the report)

ya we will last 101 years. socialism is destroying both countries. england is further along.

English vs English?   

Be right back, I hear the popcorn popping  ;D

You also have to remember that firearms are pretty much banned in England (exceptions are made mainly for shotguns on farms).  Cops don't even have guns, they get to run around with a fucking stick.  I think it's pretty normal that they screwed up on the name of the gun...

yeap and all those facts make them stupid 

and a lot of cops in england use guns now. almost all of them.

[toyolla86]

socialists who dont allow guns = criminals rule that shit. (cause they still have guns)

if the food in england is anything as bad as it was in Australia they're doomed for failure.

seriously though england has huge problems with all their social programs (health care, welfare, drugs, etc etc.)


once they lost Margaret Thatcher and some douche bag prime minister took over, the whole country
could've just as well drank the kool aid and called it a life.

lol at the social commentary.


What kind of dog is in the tub with them?

Quoting websites makes me feel smart

In the US, there are roughly 17,000 murders a year, of which about 15,000 are committed with firearms. By contrast, Britain, Australia and Canada combined see fewer than 350 gun-related murders each year. And it's not just about murder. The non-gun-related suicide rate in the US is consistent with the rest of the developed world. Factor in firearms, and the rate is suddenly twice as high as the rest of the developed world.
Children are affected particularly hard. An American youth is murdered with a firearm every four and a half hours on average. And an American youth commits suicide with a firearm every eight hours. It's worth remembering that many of the most spectacular mass murders of recent years were really suicides, with the perpetrators choosing to take a few other people with them while they were at it.

the fact that guns are 100% banned in england from civilian ownership is the OBVIOUS reason there are less "gun related" crimes as you so felt the need to highlight. it doesnt sa how many additional murders are commited by other means.

england is GREAT if you need other people to watch you 24/7 and tell you what to do.

Why are Britishso ugly? They all have a weird looking face.

Not just their teeth, all the package.

You should really talk to Fred.  As a non-American and non-British entity he spent 2.5 years in England, then toured the continental US in 5 weeks.  Fred's a super bright, super upbeat, super friendly guy and while he had some awesome things to say about certain British individuals he met his summation of the British class structure, economy, and the way they go about things was pretty fucking bleak.  I'm sure he has valid criticisms of the US after being here, but I'm also 110% sure he likes the US a lot better.

Keep in mind we wouldn't let you into our country because you're a shady individual.  I'm pretty sure you have a grudge against us over that - hell in the past you've stated you'd rather live in the US than Canada, and IIRC you were comparing the greater Ontario region to shithole Michigan, and Michigan was winning.
