Quote:Crime exists in all societies but it is more in Western societies as there is plenty of decadence.
BEg to differ. Western Societies are nowhere close to crime levels in developing or 3rd world countires.
True crime exists everywhere, But POVERTY/ Education and Law enforcement agencies in a country play a big role in the difference of Levels of crime in a 3rd world / developing country and a 1st world country.
Westerner’s experience of violent crimes is on a very small basis as opposed to us.
We have become virtually immune to the shock and horror of Crime/Death in south Africa, The end of day stats is that a Violent crime (RAPE, Murder , armed Robbery, cop killing, Hi-jacking) is committed every 17 seconds here.
To us simply making it home alive , Allahs will (avoiding being robbed, hijecked n so fort) is part of survival, even tho we are the most developed country in Africa.
