In 1988, the crime rate in the United States rises four hundred percent. The once great city of New York becomes the one maximum security prison for the entire country. A fifty-foot containment wall is erected along the New Jersey shoreline, across the Harlem River, and down along the Brooklyn shoreline. It completely surrounds Manhattan Island. All bridges and waterways are mined. The United States Police Force, like an army, is encamped around the island. There are no guards inside the prison, only prisoners and the worlds they have made. The rules are simple: once you go in, you donāt come out.

It was also concurrent with reduction of atmospheric lead content.
Iām pretty sure that lead levels donāt deter crime. We know for a fact that the knowledge their prey may be armed or is definitely armed clearly deters criminals.
Letās stay in the realm of reality if thatās not too much to ask.
But people would be fleeing the UK like they are doing in South Africa if their violent crime rate was actually five times higher than the USās.
If you are enamored with the UK you could always move there. Just saying. 
Not a citizen of the EU, so not so easy.
If I was that enamored I would give it a try.
They couldnāt drag me there to live with a team of wild horses.
Visiting is ok to live not so much.
He has me just about āconvincedā WR. I am closely watching my guns for any sign of movement! 
A very judicious action.
Lead levels affect intelligence. And the reduction of lead use does correlate with the reduction in crime.
Tiday is my normal shooting range day so there will be some gun movement after while.

Iāve meant multiple foreigners who feel safer in the US than their own country because they know that a lot of law abiding citizens own guns and will come to their defense if need be. They also tell me to keep fighting and not allow government and scared of their own shadow people in the US disarm me.

I didnāt think it possible, but apparently politicians are becoming more stupid.
As a matter of interest which countries were they from?
Probably Australians?
Very, very, very unlikely unless they are from FNQ.
Who or what is FNQ?
Far north Queensland.
