How can this be? Everyone knows guns kill people, and London has very few of those... Murder Rise I guess they'll be buttering their scones with a spoon from now on...
I’m going to ignore the assenine outlandish approach the Mayor of London is taking with knives, it’s such folly it’s not even in the category of common sense at this point. The catalyst we all know is not knives, guns, cricket bats or number 2 pencils but as it’s now taboo and against the law to even dare mention why this is happening in the UK I’ll share a story of another European country in trouble. A German couple in their early 30’s pulled up to our farm gate in rural Charlotte county last week, said they spent a few days visiting Miami and were headed to St.Pete. They asked if they could tour our Citrus operation and since my mechanic was once stationed in their hometown in Germany it was like old home week so I asked him to tour them around the property. Interesting what they had to say about Germany though, they both admitted that the visit to Florida was part vacation part scouting trip. They plan on moving to Florida as soon as possible and say that thousands of Germans will soon be moving to the U.S.. In their words Germany is no longer a Christian country it is Muslim with all laws protecting the new immigrants to the detriment of the German people. We can no longer walk safely down the street, our children are not safe at school and we feel abandoned by our government, our country is lost... The UK and Europe has some serious issues at hand...
Interesting story you relate Ralph. According to my 15 yr old, Europe does everything RIGHT whereas the US hasn't got a clue. :roll:
15 is a tough age in any generation, my prayers to mom and dad. As anything you say will be polar opposite because it came from your lips all you can do is walk in love and tell the truth. The US is far from perfect but there is a reason the world is envious of what we are and most would love to live here. I have worked with Italians and French for over 30 years and they are very well traveled across the globe. They continually say outside of our over abundance of lawyers compared to the rest of the world America is a light on the hill to work toward to...
True Corey it is only 2 months, but based on what we're told about the "wild west" United States and all it's guns it shouldn't even be remotely possible that a major Euro city should surpass one of similar size here. It backs up the stats I've seen about gun bans (like Australia); the murder rates are fairly static... before and AFTER guns are taken is about the same. The people who want to kill are going to do it... regardless of the tools the government restricts. BTW, I carry a knife every day, and it's a VERY handy tool I would never give up. That mayor can "F" himself...
