Fucking hell! The last thing that happened near me was some guy getting stabbed in the neck. I heard the shouting. That was saturday or friday night. He died. And yes, they were drunk. Didnt even make the news. That kind stuff is ALWAYS on the news.

i have really never seen much crime
but if crime came around me lest just say
.45's with tons of boxes of BLACK TALONS
czech 9mil goes through 1/4 steel plate
riot shotgun
and rifles

Does your city have this?

every city has these things if there was 1 that didnt then i would be worried

I'm in Manhattan, Ks. It isn't too dangerous of a city except for there has been a serial rapist since '01...exactly what a college town needs, asshole

COMPTON

My city has it's moments...but I am not scared of anywhere, anytime...I have never lived in fear of crime.

i live in happy fairy-tail land... anyone else?

naw man i live in chicago suburbs lmao
they got WAY worse then got a little better but are gettin shitty again...
not only do a lot of people think theyre area is worse than it is, but i noticed a lot of people underestimate the crime rate of their area... like, just because they don't hear about it, they dont know that all this crazy ass shits goin on

compton looks like a fucking suburb because thats what it basically is but stick around on a block for a few minutes and youll see the local street gang coming right for you.

compton IS a suburb of Los Angeles

I live in a small city of about 1.5 million people. There are murders every now and then they are made a big deal of in the press because they happen so rarely. a little of other crime like break in ect but apart from that the biggest worry is the great whites that in the last 5 or 10 years have made a habbit of eating people surfing or swiming. since i spend a fair bit of time in the water that's my biggest worry lol. but hey if it happens it happens

"compton looks like a fucking suburb because thats what it basically is" - me

compton right now is fucked up for blacks and mexicans. there is a big ass racial war. gangs from both sides blastin each other and random innocent people just because of their race. its not about pirus and compton crips vs surenos anymore its straight up racial now. black vs brown.

I live in the Seattle metro area. eastside of lake washington. very low crime here. this is kind of a yuppie haven. seattle itself has relatively low crime. seattle cops have de-prioritized marijuana related crimes. the south sound area has some crime. lakewood especially. I bet if you removed the meth market the crime would reduce by 70%

town of 1100 had a double murder 3 years ago first one in 15 years my car has the keys in the ignition, doors wide open to thehouse i walk around all night so yes its safe

is everyone here from the ghetto shiii :pimp:

Havent really heard much bout da midwest, where the midwesterns at?

I live in Columbus right now.. it has its violent crimes and its murders.. its cute little "hood" area, and apparantly Cleveland Ave is bad enough that it is no longer policed. Like a warzone. I dunno.. this isnt my town.

D.C. is my city, and Ive spent plenty of time in Bmore and Glen Burnie bringing KB into Southern Maryland. Murder is murder no matter where it takes place, and if you dont recognize a killer you can be the victim no matter WHERE the hell you are. Education and awareness are your best bets.

Shit... even the small town in Southern Maryland that I lived in had some crazy shit go down in the time during and after I lived there.

ha ha nope i life in IF Town in other words Idaho Falls Idaho full of mormons but pretty damb safe ha

not at all; I live in a small country village. Theft and crimes are really low. Yeah, I think it's a safe place to live and to toke.

I live in KILLAFORNIA by stockton lets just say if u mess around your death wont be known or reported you will just come up missing :jointsmile:

Yeah... a majority of legal gun owners would. But illegal gun owners are a completely different story. They have that gun because they are ready to kill in the first place. And whether they know it or not, if you are ready to kill, you are ready to die.

So the people with nothing to lose and everything to gain, will happily use a gun on a man guaranteed to be unarmed due to gun laws. And there will be nothing anybody could do about it.

The federal government barely had the funds to function on any level, much less protect each individual citizen.

Nowadays, the government is MUCH better equipped to protect it's citizens, as evidenced by the billions of dollars they are able to throw at the so-called war on drugs. Wrap your head around this: the positive of being able to go and quite easily buy a gun to "protect yourself" is far outweighed by the negative of the fact that it's WAY WAY easier for a criminal or potential criminal to buy a gun if the government makes it legal. That might not have been the case when this country was founded, but it certainly is now, and has been for some time.

You have far too much blind faith in the people who hold your life in their collective hands.

I live in Chicago by the projects so yeh it's kinda dangerous at night but convenient since my dealer lives right next door to me!

Well where I live it use to not be much of a problem with crime, but over the last 5 years with more and more people from up North coming here( no offense to you if you live up north but, your crime is moving down here with you) their has been a great increase in murder and gang violence here.

These are firearms siezed just from east london [as far as i know, the site is fucking shite and doesnt go into any detail - and you'd think crime would go down wouldnt you?

One would think... but I have learned by association that most people that would own a gun illegally in the first place would just be pissed off that their shit was siezed. And commit more crimes to get more money to buy more guns illegally. And there will ALWAYS be an illegal gun market. Because there will always be arms embargoes and restrictions.

Iv watched it meny times, Its a brilliant film and it shows u some real life shit. There living in some real harsh conditions..

Scotland is getting real bad for murders, shootings and really bad for stabbings.. Glasgow is real bad for people getting stabbed..

Scottish murder rates


Scotland second on murder rate poll
Midlothian Today. 16 July 2007

Scotland has the second highest murder rate in western Europe, it has been reported.

The new figures, which show that Scots are three times more likely to be killed unlawfully than people living in England and Wales, come just days before the country hosts an international conference on violence prevention.

World Health Organisation (WHO) statistics show the country has 1.75 homicides per 100,000, the Sunday Times reported.

Of the 21 European countries covered by the figures only Finland has a higher rate, at 2.16 per 100,000, it said. That compares with 0.74 in France, 0.63 in Germany and 0.49 in the rest of the United Kingdom.

Scotland has kept second spot in the table, despite the rate falling from the 2.23 recorded by the previous WHO survey in 2002.

Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill said he did not believe Scotland is an overwhelmingly violent country and is not the worst off internationally.

He said: "But clearly Scotland does have its own very real problems, not least the high levels of alcohol-fuelled violence in our homes and on our streets, and the long-standing issue of knife crime.

"Yet, violence is preventable, not inevitable. And the Scottish government is determined to take action to tackle the problem, including the longer term work needed to challenge the culture of violence that prevails in too many parts of Scotland."

Mr MacAskill will open a three-day WHO conference on violence prevention at the Scottish Police College at Tulliallan, Fife, on Tuesday. The conference will be attended by 200 experts from around the world.

i live in phillipsburg, new jersey. its not reccomended to walk around the projects at night, other than that, its pretty safe

I live in Lincoln, Nebraska... safest city that is over 200,000 people. I think it's too safe, I can never find any shit to do.

what are exhibitionists and how are they dangerous!?

Down here its basically always fighting. People who use weapons down here get jumped by alot of people. OF course everyone still carries weapons. 9mm is my choice or my blade.

not too much violence here. alot of crack and meth, fucked up people walking the streets

hell no, i live i a very small town, very little crime.

I live in one of the most dangerous cities in the world, Kingston Jamaica.

Bloody hell. Well, at least if i got caught i'd only be serving a 1/3 of the sentence haha! Or the way things are going i might even get a suspended sentence, unless they do something with the prisons.

Either way, in my eyes everyone is entitled to protect themselves, and if need be, everyone should be ready to take lives. Shoot or be shot, stab or be stabbed. Although i'd rather remove kneecaps.
