i.e. poverty etc. You can't expect people to follow such laws when the social conditions of the underclasses force them into crime.

But as long as the existing social conditions remain, the death of one criminal will have no effect whatsoever. _________________

Amen to that. That's what a great deal of people fail to understand. That many are forced into crime by social conditions and not by mere will. |

Yeah. I now cannot agree more. Because this week, some old man burned Korea's Namdaemun (National Teasure No 1) down to the ground because he wasn't paid enough money by the government.
It's a sad day in history for Korea...  |

If everyone adopted drug policies like they have in Switzerland this wouldn't be a problem. _________________

I feel your pain...being Chinese, I've seen many structures like the Namdaemun, but few besides the Forbidden City that are as beautiful. It is what happens to many people when they are put into places they dislike-they fight back, sometimes destroying the things that they really care about.
Here's a pic of the Namdaemun:

And the only way to curtail it is by adopting such policies. _________________

Offence IS taken...
America is a big nation. It has a lot of people so naturally it will have a bigger number of dumb asses. but it also has a bigger number of smart people. |
I live in the US, and there is not a larger number of smart people..... |
