    “that was a different London than you have today. Today you have people being stabbed in the ass or worse… it’s crazy,” he said.

    Donald needs to stop believing all the bullshit Fox News and their ilk are spewing out. Because the only thing involving asses in this situation is Trump talking out of his (yet again).

      If it discourages Trump from coming to London, I’m sure most Londoners would be fine with him staying deluded.

    If there’s one thing I know about the Brits it’s that when they say “nonsense” they mean “complete and total bullshit”

      If there’s one thing I know about Americans it’s that when they say “bullshit” they mean “utter poppycock, twaddle and codswallop.”

        Nah, they mean “I know it sounds unlikely, but I’m still too credulous to actually disbelieve it”. Or they would if they had such an expansive vocabulary. It probably sounds like “Woo Yah” in their heads.

    How many school shootings did you have today? Or just “regular” shootings, where someone dies of a bullet wound?

    I’d rather be stabbed in the ass than shot dead at school.

    Rapist felons in American should never complain about crime anywhere ever. We are the crime-ridden shithole because we let rich white people get away with everything under the sun.
