You can do it invidivually in most games I think but still ... beside the point. They deserve to die. I don't know why so many Americans think it's absoloutely hillarious to sing the entire way through a game of Halo.

Bit random, though. Why'd they just come up and attack you? They must have been really stupid. Glad you're OK.

Wasn't around until 1993, but I've heard that it was far safer back then. I suppose there will always be people jumping on each other for no reason, but many people say it's grown significantly since then.

And I hear people say it's much safer today.

Different people say different things. Smart people don't believe it automatically. There is no real way of quantifying at which point in history the streets were safer.

The media likes to pretend they are more dangerous today because they have invented the chav subculture and handed it to the scumbags who were always there.

It's a bit like how they've invented the term 'binge drinking' and have applied it to what used to be just called 'drinking'. None of it's new.

People were legally allowed to carry knives back then also. Although obviously they still do now, less fear. And the 70's was a much more violent time. No new age man

LOL. You and Stu are probably right. Hey, I was only born in '93, so, unless I was there to see how it was like for myself, I'm probably in no state to judge, haha.
