Who's going to buy a stolen DVD payer down the pub when you can get a new one for 20 quid.

But there was far more crime around here, especially burglary and car theft in the 90s, then there is today.

That doesn't necessarily mean that sexual crime is not reducing it simply means that more crimes are recorded. That is a major failing of all recorded crime figures - they measure the efficacy of the system not the crime rate.Zambo wrote:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... olice.htmlRoy Twing wrote:Sexual & violent crime is not reducing, and in fact, the UK is one of the least 'safe' places in the developed world.Glazed Earthenware Horse wrote:What ever it means the UK is still one of the safest places to live in the entire world.

When this thread started, I put a post on here but deleted it, Basically I went in to it in too much detail, without a shaddow of a doubt things that used to be a crime, are not so much now, i.e. minor crimes of criminal damage ect.Steve Hunt wrote:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-30931732

I don't know how you can form an intelligent view of the subject by relying on personal observation alone. If I did, I would certainly agree it is reducing.
