Violent crime is not higher there than here. You are a liar to imply that it is....and then you proceed to show us how much lower the violent crime rate is there. Nice job, professor.All these Leftist screaming for gun control and pointing out how much safer it is in the UK are pulling the wool over your eyes....
FROM THE BBC.......
Largest crime rise in England and Wales for 10 years
Largest annual crime rise for 10 years

Everything said about your lack of knowledge is true.
Stats were already conveniently supplied for you earlier in the thread.
Violent crime is HIGHER there.
Why make crap up like you do?
See your mother if your comprehension skills are lacking.

London is now more dangerous than New York city, and with their cuts to police manpower, police money, and attacking the police with political correctness.....violence isn't going down anytime soon ...
London now more dangerous than New York City, crime stats suggest
While both London and New York have populations of around 8 million, figures suggest you are almost six times more likely to be burgled in the British capital than in the US city, and one and a half times more likely to fall victim to a robbery.
London has almost three times the number of reported rapes and while the murder rate in New York remains higher, the gap is narrowing dramatically.
The change in fortunes of the two global cities has been put down largely to the difference in tactics adopted by the two police forces.
Both Scotland Yard and the New York City Police Department (NYPD) have just over 30,000 officers each and budgets of around £3 billion a year.
But in the mid-1990s spiralling crime rates in New York - sparked by the crack cocaine epidemic - resulted in radical a new approach being adopted by the city's police department.
Under the leadership of Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and police commissioner, Bill Bratton, the NYPD introduced a zero tolerance approach to low level crime and flooded problem areas with patrols.
The force also put a huge amount of emphasis on community policing in order to build bridges between the police and members of the public.
As a result the murder plummeted from a high in 1990 of over 2,000 to a record low of 335 last year.
That figure is expected to fall even lower this year, and is currently in line to dip below 240.
