Do they have comparible levels of violent crime as London does , do areas of those places have comparible figures to parts of London ?
Marbut knows the law... what can I say, have to hand it to the guy. And Weaver was Idaho, kind of out our jurisdiction. Sure we have our fringe groups (ala Separatists :laugh4:) But they keep to their own, and are only just as heavily armed and experienced in their arms as the common joe around here. There isn't any MAD going on, simply because the FBI, Nat'l guard, and the average citizen could easily wipe these groups off the face of the earth if need be. (Ever Heard of the Freemen?)Quote:

Well, although as a whole we have much less violent crime in South Wales than in London, there are parts of each of those cities where there would be a comparable amount of violent crime to parts of London, yes. I'm not sure what your point is.Quote:

If you look at the cities in South Wales on a population basis and compare their levels of violent crime with the city of London are they equally comparable or within a few thousandth of a percent of each other ?
Now you could extend that and go with the crime statistics crowd arguement that London with its higher number of visitors means that more incidents of violent crime actually get reported and registered than would otherwise be the case which should eliminate the few thousadth of a percent difference and then you would be left with the worry that cities in South Wales have more violent crime than London .
So the point is BKS its all about perception , if you were out and about would you be more in fear of the reputation of Brixton or Mumbles ?
I wasn't aware Randy Weaver ever committed any sort of violent crime. :inquisitive: Any source for your slander?Quote:

CR
Any source for your question? Because I didn't write that. I've looked up some stuff and seen some of Weaver's interviews on YouTube and I think he was too much of a coward to commit violent crime. He preferred to give his 10-year-old son a gun and put him between the law and himself. And then he was surprised the whole thing didn't end like a fairy-tale.Quote:

Meh. The Only to two places I can imagine here that Weaver would find any solace is possibly Noxon and Darby, two backwoods towns that maybe have a combined population of 500 mostly uneducated, white supremacist, Religiously Fanatical Hill Folk. They stay out of our way, and cower whenever they get any media attention. Actually, its funny, because Darby recently got a new interstate section slapped right in the center of their town. :laugh4:Quote:

I can imagine that, the scenery looks absolutely fantastic in pictures. And with less than 1 million inhabitants I guess you can pretty much live where you like and as you like, as long as you can look after yourself.Quote:

The east is a bit different of a story, where you can pretty much live on the cheap, and live comfortably, but you sacrifice the view as I've heard the East looks a lot like the Khazak steppes, but if that was your thing... and there really is a sense of community here, even if your closest neighbor is 10 miles in any direction from your house, the ranchers out east have a very strong sense of that, more so than the bigger enclaves in the mountains I'd say. I think the reason why less than 1 million people live here is that Montana is EXPENSIVE, and although there is a lot of economic opportunity here in regards to mining, energy, etc. etc most of the locals dislike the prospect of being fenced off from land they rightfully see as "everyones" so conservation is like a big deal here, I mean Butte at one point did have over a million people, but if you see how much the mines scarred up the land, you'd see why people are hesitant to allow their land to be touched. And so in return we have to pay an almost disturbing amount in property taxes, but its worth it.Quote:
