Cyclone Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 YES because MY EXPERIENCE is that I have never had a gun pushed in my face in Manchester, but, during the short time I lived in Sheffield I did. Surely not that hard to comprehend is it? If you'd actually said that (before just now), then it would have been easy to understand. But you didn't.

Guest Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I think, that Sheffield is one of the most safest city, not just in the UK, but in the world in general. Sure, there are stabbings, gang related murders from time to time, but there is no "no go murder area", and you can walk literally everywhere, there are no big organised crime syndicates, gunfights, nobody is going crazy with the "Kalashnikov" and hand grenade because few grams of narcotics. And you will find that kind of behaviour not just in USA, but also in lots of European cities, both eastern an western Europe. Now, this is just my observation for almost 3 years living here. Who knows, maybe I am wrong, maybe I am missing some parts of the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would I offer an opinion based on anything other than my own experiences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80peter Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 YES because MY EXPERIENCE is that I have never had a gun pushed in my face in Manchester, but, during the short time I lived in Sheffield I did. Surely not that hard to comprehend is it? I dont care about statistics and figures they can be manipulated or skewed. I base my feelings on what I see and do and witness. On that basis I, personally, do not feel safe in Sheffield but can understand that others who have not had my experiences may do. I do not criticise them for that. But then I ACTUALLY GREW UP and am not on a mission to argue and put down every person I come across. ---------- Post added 15-09-2018 at 12:32 ---------- Interesting that at this point 30% do not feel safe. I would be interested to know if they have had similar experiences to me or if it is for other reasons. I seem to recall that an bus driver was attacked he had his face slashed by an knife it was a few years ago in a bus robbery no idea if they were caught.

DerbyTup Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Birmingham is the city where people feel least safe - Sheffield was 5th. Anyone spotted a link between the size of the city and the feeling of safety? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, dont live in Sheffield now after my experiences there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't speak for you or your experiences, I certainly don't think that we can guess that you had a gun pointed at you in Sheffield... So why didn't you just say so?
