Actress Gwyneth Paltrow is ruling out the prospect of returning to America to raise her child - because she deems her homeland too dangerous. The Oscar winning beauty - who is pregnant with her husband Chris Martin's baby - has been living in London since settling down with the Coldplay star, and she has no intention of bringing up their child in a threatening environment. She says, "I worry about brining up a child in America. At the moment there's a weird, over-patriotic atmosphere over there, like, 'We're number one and the rest of the world doesn't matter.' And the guns in school - it's not great."

I've always found actors to be rather flighty and unattached from the rest of the world. Especially when I used to live in West LA.

They're just as nice as any normal person. But they're really lost on issues that require logic and deductive skills. They seem to think that their high retnetion skill makes them intellectual when it really doesn't. It just means that they have a good memory and it doesn't make up for their lacking ability to be reasonable.

She can raise her kids in any country she wants, but who does she think she is fooling? She wouldn't put her child into a public school anyway. Instead, she'd complain about school vouchers while she can afford to put her children into the best private schools.

As as far as England being safer, she obviously is oblivious to the Imams preaching violence in the streets of London.
