The ignorant Americans that have some sort of grudge against the thought of the UK having 'ghettos' or 'rough' areas, are completely blind and have no knowledge on the topic. If you compared the crime-rate of USA and UK on terms based on scale/population, then you would think differently. It's only because USA have like 50 times more people than England that you have such higher crime-rates... The UK's is just compact into a smaller area.

As I said, I'm not glorifying anything, I think it's quite sad actually.
