As a native of Scotland, I was astonished and disheartened to see the UN report indicating that Scotland is now the most violent country in the world. When I was a boy, in the 50s and 60s, it was safe to walk down literally any street in the country at any time of the day or night.
That must be just a heartbreaking thing to watch happen to one's homeland in so short a span of decades.
