Much love to Paris but Marseille is still the hottest and the hardest city in France (and probably in the Western Europe), it was the WORLD capitol of drug in the 70's.
Italian, Chinese and Russian mafias are still highly connected with Mars
This definately aint no boast, but sorry to say I think a couple of cities in England now the hardest places this side of the atlantic and shit is getting worse every day.
London and Birmingham got some serious gun and gang problems that they can't cope with (the government just hired a US police chief) and in my city the drug wars here is ridiculous, my home city has Yardies from Jamaica smashin on people every fuckin week.
Ain't no Mafia or Chinese out here, just gangs of Yardies. Someone got gun down 200 or 300 yards from me just this weekend in the city centre where cats and even local students cool out.
The big carnival in London (Notting Hill) is pretty much locked down now, but the one here has had serious problems, two years ago it was abandoned after turning into a turf war between Yardie drug gangs... shit was unreal, cats was goin at it with machettes and even nail guns.
This year it was love, but from time to time gun crime is going out of control and we got armed police on our streets (not normal in this country).
People dont think of Europe like this, but all the same problems is here and growing fast. To me a couple of UK cities has the biggest problems anywhere in Europe, the police is weak as hell, and in my experience crime is going out of control....
I really hope not, but just thought I'd speak on that.....
