Heero, fair point in the past but I think Italian
football has taken the unfortunate mantle. As for the
initial post, I don't think it is a reflection of
the Brits attitude towards USA, or indeed, we are holier
than thou.

There are many issues in the UK and as a fellow Brit
pointed out, stabbings have been a major focus in our press. Indeed one of the most attractive things for moving here, particularly when you have children is the better environment you bring them up in, in terms of crime.

As for the allowance of gun ownership in the USA, then that is a personal opionion, that on this occasion has been expressed by a Brit. For my 2 penneth, allowing the public to purchase firearms, whilst defending the American vision of ultimate freedom, is a bit of a paradox for me.

Alexa and Novi, your recent Brit bashing is getting tedious, as is your omnipotent presence and frankly bullying manner.
