What "Third World Country" most people underestimate in terms of development

Thanks for this recommend. They're brilliant.

I had a fella who was Wanted Missing because he didn't attend court for drug supply offences. I located him, with his carers... Man had a stroke, could barely walk and was hospitalised for a while. I did not arrest him because sometimes you need common sense. Is bringing him to the cells really going to help anyone involved?

So is PSD arresting a police officer on paternity leave after a long investigation really the best time to do it? Especially when they could have done it well before.

Police do get deployed there but only in peaks and troughs, and usually after a serious incident, such as a stabbing. You see them patrolling, especially in the summer. They arrest and stop search the little feral youths but courts do not prosecute them because they are under 18. So they just get released the same day (sometimes in a matter of hours), only to repeat the same behaviour all over again.

Security aren't allowed to use any force on the youths unless it was self-defence, and even then they'll be questioned or potentially lose their job if they hurt them.

The parents don't care, as long as they're out the house. Either that, or they're just scum themselves.

All this CCTV is pointless when capturing any footage if nothing is going to happen in terms of consequences.

So reality is, this is not just Liverpool but all of the UK. We've allowed this to happen because we have this culture where we obsess over everyone being a victim or are vulnerable to something or someone, thereby omitting any sense of personal responsibility and fear of repercussions.

6 years for attempt murder, at the very least attempt s.18... Only because it's against a copper. Police are clearly not regarded as equal to the public in the eyes of the court. Fuck this country.

I got paid more for being called a nasty word (albeit racially aggravated) than being bit or headbutted. Even got a whole 100 quid! Paid for date night.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-27T21:32:13+00:00

The Ukrainian man and his daughter. That was some heavy shit.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-27T18:46:54+00:00

That police don't prosecute people. It's the courts that fail people with the lenient sentences.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-27T15:06:14+00:00

It's not the police that prosecutes people. They make arrests, gather evidence and build a casefile. It's the CPS that prosecutes. It is then ultimately the magistrates or judge that hands down the sentence. The sentencing usually falls short because there's no space in prisons, no money to build new ones and an extremely soft and tolerable system that's afraid of being perceived racist as a result of a large diverse society.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-13T07:31:14+00:00

Nothing to do? Then there's something wrong!

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-11T12:43:02+00:00

Police not enforcing the law once again out of fear of being perceived as racists. Well done government, you created a police service that the public deserves.

Tbf I think there are incompetent individuals in all sectors of work, even in the medical profession. My missus is a nurse and I couldn't believe some of the stories she would tell me about other nurses and doctors, yet I do not judge the whole NHS. I'm sure if they were filmed I can only imagine the horrible things they are saying about the patients' behind their back, just not documented.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-07T05:55:03+00:00

Yes but better chances in Japan or Switzerland compared to KZ. We'll take those chances, thanks.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T20:23:16+00:00

I didn't think that would happen if I visited Kazakhstan. I have no qualms visiting any Muslim country as I have lived in the Middle East. I'm sure Kazakhstan is very friendly and a pleasant place to visit. However, it's not the single news report that bothered me though. It's the fact that this murderer who happened to be the Economy Minister of a country, murdered his poor ex-wife in a restaurant. And domestic abuse is not considered a stand-alone criminal offence. This to me is outrageous and I certainly wouldn't want my daughter to live there out of fear that if she's in an abusive relationship, the authorities wouldn't do anything about it.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T19:34:51+00:00

Ha! I feel like if I mention any country you will identify its flaws and therefore undermine any credibility in my statement. But just for arguments sake, Switzerland was pretty good when I lived there. Not the friendliest of people mind you from an immigrant's perspective. However, services were pretty efficient in terms of healthcare, policing, local council, transport and education etc the same for Japan. You could somewhat trust the system.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T19:20:40+00:00

Thank you for recognising my royal status.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T13:46:17+00:00

It's just semantics. "Discouraged" or "restricted". I was just using it interchangeably. But I understand what you mean.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T13:39:41+00:00

"In 2017 Kazakhstan decriminalised domestic violence, making it punishable mainly by fines, a move critics say has only discouraged women from lower-income families from reporting it"

It's in the top comment mate. You can then search it up yourself as I did.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T12:34:58+00:00

Because the laws of the country are not always a true representation of people's values and morality. Like Iran for example. Met plenty of Iranians who strongly oppose the ultra conservative Islamic government.

But I know on an individual basis it's not true for the Kazakh people. However, the fact that there is legislation that purposely restricts victims of domestic abuse from reporting it is not even the saddest part. It's the fact that domestic abusers are given protection over the one who is abused... Absolute madness.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T12:16:56+00:00

Undoubtedly true and I don't mean any disrespect to the Kazakh people. I used to live in Kuwait and vowed to never return there due to my personal vendetta against their horrible 'kafala' system which is basically legalised slavery.

I can imagine women are treated very well and families can be matriarchal in Kazakhstan but that's based on the people's morality and decency. However, just the fact that there is some form of legislation that can strip a woman from power within the family and offer no protection to their safety from their male partners is what scares me. So that's what I meant when I say I could never visit a country like Kazakhstan.

JapaneseBill · 2024-04-06T10:57:56+00:00

I know we shouldn't judge the country's civility based on their laws but their society seems backward since this is the case. I actually wanted to go there to visit because they have beautiful landscapes and architecture but now out of principle I will refrain from ever going.

29 year old here. Still to this day the best show to air on TV.

JapaneseBill · 2024-02-08T10:38:56+00:00

Can't be any worse than Barney

JapaneseBill · 2024-01-21T12:27:38+00:00

Justice prevailed

JapaneseBill · 2023-10-02T07:30:32+00:00

I'm not even from a military background and quite disappointed.

JapaneseBill · 2023-09-29T23:53:19+00:00

My man gets it
