   Oh Geez, it isn't hushed up to the tune of 15 k plus murders and  1/2   
   million rapes or attempted rapes .Many societies , people go where ever they   
   want and when they want to  and they don't lock their doors and murder is   
   something visiting GI's do when they come to visit. What is it about a   
   society that can't own up to a simple logical argument about protecting its   
   own citizen from crime and fear of crime. What is it about a society that   
   would rather watch crime unfold and watch people kill others then   
   practically anything else in life and they can't seem to get to the next   
   logical step .- What to do about it. We are so into accepting the status quo   
   , this diversity of different people and cultures, we fail to realize we   
   also are accepting too easily the diversity of dsyfunctional values along   
   with it. We are desensitized to violence which makes it too easy to see   
   violence as a choice for everything when things go awry. Its a sick   
   commentary when we can't protect our own kids from violence or poverty and   
   yet we are supporting half the world with false bravado. Well intentioned no   
   less, but we simply don't own up to our own problems .Its not that we are   
   giving away the ship , its that we havent even begun to understand why its   
   important to save our own fleet.in good working order.
