    If you watch some of the documentaries on TV you will see parts of this country ARE pretty lawless with absoluely no respect for the police/courts.

    The country is a time bomb.

    These documentaries are dedicated to finding the worst areas. People then watch them and have the perception that our whole country is like this when in fact it isnt. People simply do not realise how good of a country we live in.

    Just a quick edit now.

    Highest rate of car theft in the world.....Aus
    Highest rate of burglary in the world.....Aus

    Higher rate of rape (3rd in the world) .....Aus (UK miles down the list)

    Higher rate of murder ......Aus

    Higher rate of manslaughter......Aus.

    Yup, a crime free paradise unlike our lawless society that we live in.

    You're wasting your time Div.

    As long as people do as the proverbial ostrich does then this country will continue to slide down into the abyss.To those people I will say just one thing:

    When I lie in the box,the curtain comes down and the light goes out,it will be a far worse country I leave than the one I came into.

    Too right! there are certain people on here that antagonise people by arguing with every post. But even they can't argue that this country is going down the shi77er faster than a faggot at a ar5e kissing contest.

    I just love how every thread seems to go off topic very quickly. We should be talking about him as a player, as an individual and what Saints can offer him, not comparing crime figures. Yes thats concerned with Australia as a country but for me we are veering off topic yet again.

    You cannot fail to be amazed by the paradox of this country. We must be doing some thing right as so many people are attracted to this country from overseas. Since legislation was passed to allow "foreigners", to come over here and work we have been flooded with migrant workers. These workers often do work that we in this country don't want ie low paid, unsociable hours, and invariably the native,"Britain", finds claiming benefits much more rewarding than going out to work in such roles. We are a nation of whingers, who love to wallow in self-pity and are always hard done-by.
    If we had half the energy and drive of the migrant workers who ligimately come over here to work, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
    Oh, yes, who invited immigrants over here in the first place?....yes, we did, because we couldn't find anyone to fill the unskilled roles which were in abundance at that time. Thus, if you want to whinge and criticise then look no further than our arrogant, indifferent selves.

    Topics and debates develop. One such development was the speculation that Aus could offer Roby better things due to numerous reasons. Most of those reasons that Div pointed out were right. One was not which I pointed out with a perfectly legitimate point.

    Roby may move to Aus to challenge himself. To make him a better player. To get a better quaity of life. To live in nicer weather. However he wont be going somewhere that is better in crime terms.

    The irony of this is not lost on me. Even after I have provided details about Aus being worsae for crime heads are still being buried in the sand.

    Aye, they are factored for population size as they should be.

    In general, we have more crime in the violent / assault / robbery kind of way and more total crime but the Aussies are worse for the serious crimes.

    So assault/robbery are NOT serious crimes???

    Maybe but I suspect those crimes are pretty rare either way.

    The MAJORITY of folk will be most affected by burglary, robbery, assault, theft and vandalism.

    No link ? lol



    Actually this country would be fantastic if any political party had the balls to deal with crime head on. Build plenty of new prisons with little facilities and long sentences. take all the scum out of circulation and the rest of us can work and play and enjoy a great standard of living.

    Aye, its a fair point. I'd still say its pretty level between the two though. Burgalry and car theft are still worse in Aus and affect the majority of people much like our favourite past-times of assault and vandalism

    Dont get me wrong, I dont think our country is a crime free haven its just that we tend to under rate our country and over rate other countries. When you think of here you think of the negative documentaries that you see. When you think of Aus you remember watching 'a place in the sun' where everyone has swimming pools and has nice communal barbecue areas. Real life in both countries is different.

    I agree.

    We should be like the US. That will erradicate all crime like it does there.
