What is going on?
Three in Coventry in the last week, two in Nuneaton and several across the Midlands over the last month, some fatal.
Of course there are those who will try and tell you its not in any way linked to the huge cuts in police funding over the same period.Statistics show the awful story. It is worrying.
Knife crime doubles in Coventry over five years

The zero tolerance initiative cost a fortune. No way they'll put that sort of resource into something similar here.Get tough on the petty crime as per NYC

NY still has a higher murder rate than any uk city
We are screwed then
Let's face it a bunch of chavs on lawnmower motorbikes can do what they want then isn't much chance in dealing with hardened criminals.
I bet if you chucked firearms into the mix in the feral wastelands of the UK our big cities would eclipse NYC murder rate
He was found with a weapon at his feet in the car. Feel proper sorry for the copper who pulled the trigger.

Don't disagree, I had a similar debate about 'smacking' kids. You got the usual responses about 'I was smacked and turned out okay' and kind of take the point. I have never smacked my kids but make damn sure they grow up with values and what is right and wrong however should they get involved in any of this kind of shit then they are getting it!!!bad parenting. and thats for all races.
Without severe punishment it wont change. These idiots vote and make country worse, then play victim and blame others. some get violent. some are just trash
either way england suffers
i got hit maybe twice. and they wer eon bottom not rib shots or anything. but the fear of grounding or not having toys etc was thereDon't disagree, I had a similar debate about 'smacking' kids.

You’re right no one deserves to die but there are consequences to actions taken. I’d have had so much more respect for the specials guys if they’d said he had issues with crime and sometimes you miss out on the luck. It’s not beatiful to use a gun to steal from people is it if we’re honest. I’m happy if he came out and turned his life around which it looks like he may have done. Then to say about how he’ll be missed and stuff. What on Earth is it with the guys and the bikes remembering the person who killed him self on his bike on the a444. Surely you remember him better putting a helmet on and not driving around like an arse . I’m probably just oldYep, it's always #justice4, #pray4
Whether being killed is ever justified that's something else, don't get involved with drugs, gangs, violence and weapons and the chances of it happening to you surely go down drastically?
If your car has a marker on it for drugs, weapons and things like that then I'd bet 99% of the time there is a very good reason for it.
I remember that. Good riddanceWe have similar issues in West Yorks. Huddersfield appears to be in the midst of a drug turf war at the moment. Lots of shootings and stabbings.
Every victim is portrayed as innocent by their families and the police seem powerless to stop it.
Just Google Yasser Yaqub. The guy was a know drug dealer who was shot by the police just off the M62. To listen to his family, he was some sort of saint. They stage regular vigils where he was shot, and totally disrupt all the traffic.
and shootings.. UK 2018, correct me if I'm wrong but were the 70's not less comfortable but a lot safer.
Live: Two shot on Far Gosford Street
That's missing at least 2 stabbings I've heard aboutAnother stabbing in Victoria St, Hillfields.
These are stabbings in last 12 months.

That's all right then.Shot with an air gun though weren’t they?
Hardly the sensationalised double shooting that our local media (and regurgitated by other people) would have you believe though hey?That's all right then.

But why let the facts get in the way of a ‘golden’ click bait headline.
Yeah and I’ve been shot with a gat gun many times but I don’t regale all the lads down the boozer about the time I took multiple shot wounds in the Wyken Bronx.I got shot in the shoulder with an air rifle down Soon end many years ago. Trust me it fucking hurt!!
fella caught with an 8 inch knife at Godiva, suspended sentence, fuck me.
Though there's some scumbag with indecent images of children who got a suspended sentence as well so probably not that surprising. Getting tough with the shoplifters though.
See who's been in the dock at Coventry Magistrates' Court
