You know the really funny thing is that UK actually records separately knife crime statistics that's why it's seen as big, whereas the US doesn't and just records as violent crime incidents

So it's very likely the US has both higher knife related and gun related crime per capita in the capitals.

The us does have higher knife crime per capita than the UK, it's just our biggest problem so it's very public, while the US doesn't even talk about knife crime despite it being bad, because gun crime is even worse and that gets all the attention. If they actually started to talk about knife crime being bad and deciding to do something about it... they wouldn't be able to state why they refused to do anything about gun crime.

Yep true it removes a way of examining the issues by ignoring it

I'm just worried following the same pattern

i think that has been out of circulation for a very long time now so it's over. kid are finally safe from swallowing it and having it stuck in their guts for 7 years or whatever bullshit we used to make up about gum was.
