Excellent overview of the legal systems,, should be presented and discussed in every school as part of every educational program. And Just maybe there would be less wars and conflicts in the world .

Thank you again, dgd

I’m glad I made this afternoon free to read, this was a marathon effort and extremely well explained, although I will be honest and say some of it went way over my head. It is a pity we don’t have stronger laws in this country. At present Police seem to be wasting their time arresting kids, both male and female, as young as 12 for home invasions and theft of vehicles as they always get let off on bail, and not as in the past where you had to pay bail. One young boy who had been bailed over 300 times is still out in the streets. Now I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but it is true, and just last week an unlicensed driver in a stolen vehicle smashed into another car killing the driver and despite requests from police was let out on bail, he then went awol, thankfully two days later he was arrested and is now in custody. Maybe if we had the same laws as Vietnam the perpetrators may have second thoughts. As we keep saying, there are no consequences for any actions today.
