> several cases of guys beating on their wives in public, two drunken attempted robberies, a variety of (literal) gay bashing, random subway violence, and oodles of shit I can't recall. The latest was two weeks ago: a hit and run with a teen victim with a very nasty headwound.
Wow, I had no idea Belgium was so violent!
- scottishfiction 7y agoAnd you still have no idea. These are anecdotes collected over a long period from which you can infer nothing.
- Tharkun 7y agoIndeed. I certainly did not mean to imply that Belgium is particularly violent. These anecdotes span about two decades. Having spent most of that time living in dense population centres, usually in the poorer parts of town, has certainly added some bias to my sample.
- matwood 7y agoUnfortunately, there is violence everywhere in the world.
