Violent crime in general stats in the US are 300%+ higher than the UK. Murder rates in the US are 1600% of the UK's. Yes, that's two zeros, as in sixteen times higher.

I'm just saying Maru. Maybe look at some of the actual stats rather than listening to Trump propaganda and TiBB hysteria. The UK is a much safer country than the United States by literally every single measure there is .
