      You can go to a Starbucks and leave your laptop and phone on a desk. Literally no one will take it. Mostly because of fear of execution.

              Wow so EU countries never kill anyone? That’s amazing, I wonder how the police could possible do their job if someone is fighting back with lethal force.

              Official executions aren’t the only way a government could kill someone. Weird that you would think that.

        Exactly, lived there a while, you replace your fear of crime with a fear of authority. Don’t speak out, don’t protest, don’t ruffle feathers. It seems fine right until something effects you, then you have no recourse, except for leaving.

          I wasn’t making a point. It was a joke. It’s something people who go to Singapore say. I thought it was obvious but I always over-estimate the intelligence of an average human.
