'Gun-free' Scotland world's most violent country


Thanks to the United Nations for bringing Countertop out of retirement, again; and with a report like this, can you blame him:

A UNITED Nations report has labelled Scotland the most violent country in the developed world, with people three times more likely to be assaulted than in America.

England and Wales recorded the second highest number of violent assaults while Northern Ireland recorded the fewest...

Violent crime has doubled in Scotland over the past 20 years and levels, per head of population, are now comparable with cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Johannesburg and Tbilisi.

Gun control seems to be having predictable results.

I found out about the statistics a few days ago.
I'm Scottish. I'm not surprised by the statistics.
Assault is commonplace. you're always hearin' the stories about people.
In high school three or four of the kids in my year attacked a guy and stabbed him.
Is 'cause of b******s like them that make teenagers discriminated against.

And Screamin Eagle - STFU! Scots ain't spoke like that since the 1400s!
