I know Forgiven - we know all about the States, we are saturated from birth by the movies, the books, the newspapers, the TV..........whereas you, of course, don't get all ours! Funny, that! We don't have cities like yours, of course. We don't have the population. Auckland is very like Portland, Oregon in terms of population, and Wellington City (where I spent a few days, and which is our Capital) only has a population of 163,000 or so. The Wellington region has just under 500,00 people. So as you can see, not large cities. But believe me, our larger cities have all the problems of yours - unfortunately. (except for the guns, we don't do guns, well we do, but it's not a huge problem. We're stabbers more than shooters.) There's only 4 million of us living in NZ - and I kinda think we like it that way.
