Having spent some time in the US, I can assure you that the right to bear arms does not make for a safer and less violent society.
Having said that, the petty aggressive “what are you looking at” type behaviour that wasn’t uncommon to witness when I was young and out and about drinking at night, was far less prevalent. Or so it seemed to me. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

That is truly shocking. What is it with people and videos in portrait mode? Bloody Apple users... 
As for the story, not that surprising. Giving them all guns won't help, of course, as our cousins in the land of the free could attest (if they weren't all so scared of everything). Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

It isn't happening in our village.
Among our c.40 houses are 50 registered firearms, apparently.
* I don't think the fact it isn't happening in our village is due to our rather high gun ownership btw!  Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto

It’s all down to policing. They are concentrating too hard on upsetting peoples feelings or beliefs instead of cracking down on crime. Also, most older police are leaving the force and the young don’t stay long. It’s a terrible institution so I’ve been told by a few police friends I know. You remind me of a younger me, not much younger mind...perhaps even a little older!

On the other hand, we've now got people saying that keeping illegal immigrants in army barracks is inhumane, how does that make the soldiers, sailors and airmen feel? Their home away from home is classed as not suitable for illegals.

It wasn't the fabric of the buildings that was contested (although I wouldn't like to think of our soldiers being subjected to them) it was forcibly cramming everyone in together in the middle of a pandemic. 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Watched the illegal guy giving an interview through the wire complaining about food and no internet connection, and the reporter saying compensation would be being sought !!
Well sorry, no one asked you to come here, you could have stopped in any of the European countries you traveled through, but you see the UK as a soft touch, but if you don’t like it here, **** off somewhere else.
It’s no surprise that folks want to come here if we are “soft” (hotel accommodation, benefits, etc). We should make it tough/hard so that the message that goes back is that the UK isn’t a destination you want to go to.
I caught something earlier on the news which I think said Denmark had changed its law to say asylum can only be applied for now from outside the country.

The European countries that, according to you say, allow the transit to the United Kingdom, suffer the problem anyway ... or do you think that Europe is also the cause of your immigration problems ... that I know, with your Brexit already you are totally sovereign in that matter now ... I don't know where the complaints come from, it should be a resolved matter, right? lost in translation!
