West European countries have almost all greater fatalities than UK. Switzerland for example. And Norway and Portugal are other examples.

Discipline in schools, non existent with the resultant juvenile delinquency.

Perhaps you're right.
Can you provide evidence?

Before discipline rules are needed and known consequences if those rules are broken.

That should start before attending school.

Unclear what Bosoeker means by "fatalities", nor where he's got his figures from.

Found this which suggests he might not be totally right.

Hopefully he will clarify by producing his own sources.

It is indeed a slippery slope, bakerman. Used to be there weren't all of the drugs and drug dealers years ago in the the small towns of America. There are now. Times have changed in every city across the world, including London and Beruit. You can't compare using a cop stick to threaten someone on drugs, like a common burglar of years past.

Cope routinely kill, maim and harm those innocents?? Yes, a few do. But you don't point out the millions of calls to service every single day for police to come to the aid of someone being abused, robbed, beaten, threatened with a weapon, or their home broken into. Compare the good and brave acts police do for the entire population of our country.

Tell me, Bakerman. Who do you call when you need assistance from a home breakin? Or when someone does a hit and run with your child? Or someone abducts your child from the playground? Or someone randomly holds up your corner grocery store while your wife is trying to buy bread?
I have an idea it won't be your next door neighbor druggie. Or thugs on the corner where you live. My guess is is the closest police department.

But then, if you bad mouth law enforcement on a routine basis, who else have you got to call??
