i think y'all americans need not to worry much bout us europeans
we still have a crime, and murder rate that's way lower then what you guys have, and the percentage of europeans that are in prison is just as well...
so , don't worry , we're doing rather fine...
at least we are as long as the English keep them hooligans on their island for the Soccer WC
any knife with a blade longer then the width of a hand has been forbidden in Belgium for as long as i can remember.. never bothered me ... nobody needs a knife that long while walkign on the street, nobody with good intentions that is...
