I may be in Engliand and everything thinks .. oh what a quaint place to live, I just love your accents .. get over it .. This is a nasty, vicious, evil place and its a great place to grow up and learn the ropes.

I agree with Ant in that you don't know how far they are willing to go, so you have to make that decision to do whatever it takes to stop them.

The UK on a day to day steet fight level is far more dangerous.

There is a far higher chance of getting into a row in England. But a less likely chance of being shot.

I rarely see an actual brawl in Vancouver. In England it was virtually a daily occurance.

When I came to North America it was actually a marked difference.

People in North America would talk to you in most leary terms and then be surprised if they got a smack in the mouth.

But Newton a scrawny assed mofo like you I'm sure learned to talk your way out of it.
