Its all down to how crimes are classified. For example in the UK one 13 year old demanding a phone from his classmate is classified as a violent crime (because its a person on person crime) whereas in the US violent crime is restricted to a very small range of offences. UK. “Violent crime contains a wide range of offences, from minor assaults such as pushing and shoving that result in no physical harm through to serious incidents of wounding and murder. Around a half of violent incidents identified by both BCS and police statistics involve no injury to the victim.” (THOSB – CEW, page 17, paragraph 1.) United States. “In the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Violent crimes are defined in the UCR Program as those offenses which involve force or threat of force.” (FBI – CUS – Violent Crime) https://dispellingthemythukvsusguns.wordpress.com/ http://rayrayallday.com/2013/01/11/the-difference-between-us-uk-violent-crime-rates-depends-on-definition-of-violent-crime/

Obama kept it below 1,000. I salute him.

Most people here like football and go to watch it when they cant be at Saints matches. A few spend that time in the homo erotic experience of being in an all male club telling each other how great they are whilst wearing the same overpriced tat labels. Each to his own

Fitting adaption St Neil! Considering they're supposed to be floodlights, it looks a little, um dark, on the pitch

Much nicer than Sarisbury Green. -
Is that like Travis Perkins?

Brighton, just because Ive spent longer living in or near Brighton than I did in Southampton despite being born there. Amusing to see the usual 'I'm a harder core more pure fan than you' suspects making a quick appearance. Moths.

He's peered deep into his soul and realised he needed to bare all in order to stop Blackpool kicking him off the gravy train.

Exactly. I know all injuries are different but JRod was walking fairly normally within six weeks, and it still took him a year from then to get back playing. -
Holiday Accom in Spain Between Valencia & Barca.
buctootim replied to View From The Top's topic in The Lounge
Only been in that area twice so no expert but for what its worth: 1. Had a cheapo holiday in Sol Pelicanos Ocas in Benidorm, the hotel where the Benidorm series was shot. Everything about it was fine, except for the pool which was great - supposedly the best in Benidorm. Benidorm is a bit trashy for sure, but better than expected. Its got loads for the kids to do - eg Aqualandia waterpark and Terra Mitica theme park 2. Villajoyosa down the road a bit is small and quiet 3. Valencia is a real Spanish city not only there for tourism. Nice beach. A great city for a long weekend, could be a good choice for a city with beach trip. -
tbf this particular case is in a different league to those unarmed men shot while running away or a kid with a plastic toy. He had a gun, which he had already used to shoot himself, so clearly it was real gun and his mental state was questionable. If he hadn't been in a wheelchair this wouldn't have got publicity. I still think the police could and should have done more to disarm him, but its not an outright awful case.

Would be more apposite to buy it from a charity shop. Used, tatty, cheap and not well looked after by multiple previous owners.

Thats a third party report of a poll. The actual MORI summary of the poll gives more detail and is more interesting. There are two approaches to getting elected - be marmite or be plain vanilla. https://www.ipsos-mori.com/researchpublications/researcharchive/3626/Corbyn-seen-as-more-honest-than-most-politicians-but-Cameron-leads-on-other-PM-attributes.aspx Less than two weeks into his tenure as the new Labour leader Ipsos MORI’s detailed image ratings show the public’s views on Jeremy Corbyn and the party he leads. More than half (54%) of Britons say Jeremy Corbyn is ‘more honest than most politicians’ compared to three in ten (30%) who say the same for David Cameron. However only 32% think he’s a capable leader compared to 62% saying this for David Cameron. When asked if either ‘has sound judgment’ 32% say Mr Corbyn possesses this while 46% say Mr Cameron does. Less of the public however believe that Jeremy Corbyn is ‘out of touch with ordinary people’ when compared to David Cameron (39% versus 64%), but he falls far behind David Cameron when being seen as ‘patriotic’ (37% compared to 76%). Mr Corbyn’s Labour party leads the Conservatives as concerned about people in real need (61% versus 32%). Forty-three per cent also say Labour is the party that ‘looks after the interests of people like me’ compared to 37% who say the same of the Conservatives. More Britons however see the Conservatives as a party fit to govern (56% compared to 35%) as well as being a party with a ‘good team of leaders’ (49% compared to 27%). Worryingly for Labour three in four (75%) see the party as being divided compared to 38% who say the same for the Conservatives. When asked to compare the party leaders with their parties, 37% of Britons say they like Mr Corbyn while four in ten (40%) say they like the Labour party. Jeremy Corbyn is liked slightly more than Ed Miliband was in March 2015 (30% liked Miliband then, compared to 37% who like Corbyn now). David Cameron fares slightly better than Jeremy Corbyn with 44% of Britons saying they like him. His party shares similar ratings to Labour with four in ten (41%) saying they like the Conservative party. In his first ratings as leader one in three (33%) say that they are satisfied with Jeremy Corbyn doing his job compared to 36% who are dissatisfied, while three in ten (31%) are yet to make up their mind. This compares with Ed Miliband’s first ratings as Labour leader in October 2010 of 41% satisfied and 22% dissatisfied. Forty-two per cent say they are satisfied with David Cameron doing his job as Prime Minister while 52% are dissatisfied. September’s Political Monitor voting intention figures show a Conservative lead over Labour. Thirty-nine percent say they would vote Conservative if a general election were held tomorrow while 34% would vote Labour. The Liberal Democrats stand on 9%, while 7% say they would vote UKIP.
