I suppose you'll just dismiss this as more propaganda.

Since you provide nothing more than editorial with no documented evidence, it's pretty clear it IS just more propaganda. There is an element of truth, however, the police does spend time prosecuting non-crimes, but they've picked the wrong target in the article you've posted:

It's not clearly propaganda. You've just dismissed every single link as being propaganda. I don't take it seriously at all, as it's quite obvious at this point that there's only a narrow range of sources that you accept. And you obviously question the honesty of any organization that you disagree with.

So Jo. You forced me to look for irrefutable sources so I did. Here is the Very Best face you can put on the UK's violent crime problem. Source lancashire.gov.uk
Table 1 Recorded Police Crime by Offence Group, 2008/09 Quote:
UK Violence against persons. 16 times 100 = 1600 per 100,000 Our Department of Justice, (USDOJ) says The serious violent crimes included are rape, robbery, aggravated assault, and homicide. But I am feeling kind so I'll just count the Violence against persons and call that a irrefutable source. Rate per 100,000 UK = 1600 Crime in the United States Rate per 100,000 Inhabitants Quote:

[quote=Jo Bennett;389431]The UK figures, if you care to look, include more than just aggravated assault in the assault stats, which makes a huge difference to the figures, and also includes things like child neglect that are of no relevance to this discussion. As I've said before, you're not comparing like with like./QUOTE]
No? How many assaults are non-assaults? Quote:

Now we have to rely on surveys that just give an indication of what is really happening! But it is a poll, not the actual facts! One criticism of the BCS is that it does not include offenses such as murder and manslaughter, and or repeat offenses. How do we even know what is true, when nothing is reliable?

There is some other interesting tabs further down off of the overview tab. Please see firearm crime tabs.
Firearm crime graph A good increase in firearm crime after what is called the Strictest gun control in the Western World, which took place in 1996. So tell us. Is this the way gun control is Posta Work? ![]() Shouldn't the British residents naturally have expected it to actually go down, instead of up? Is that the way gun control Posta work? I'm just saying!
