I immediately thought of you when I read the bit you quoted.
Quote:The question is why are there no rules or order in the Congo?
Why is this such a huge problem in the vast majority of post colonial countries?
Oh,
lawlessness is only
"a huge problem in the vast majority of post colonial countries?"
Is that your argument ???
And the problems of mankind [and particularly the problems of the peoples of the 3rd world], are caused by, can be laid at the feet of, the exploitative culture and the exploitative people of the morally exploitative West/1st world.

Annie,
Coming back to the subject of those persons, who are sexually exploiting others, in the Congo [and in other places];
A question;
Do
>> you << want the right to choose [and to be unrestrained by rules] ?
Or, do you want the right to choose [and to be unrestrained by rules],
AND,
to have the right to be offended when others are allowed to exercise their choices too [in a totally unrestrained fashion] ?
Annie,
Why are you arguing that the choices of some people should be subject to censure [i.e.
but not your choices!] ?
Ah, but
you are a moral person.

And the choices that you would make, would never offend others.
But the unrestrained choices of some people should be censured, because their clearly immoral choices, will offend
>> you <<] ?
Is that your argument ???
Annie,
Another question;
If you
must be permitted [must have the right] to be unrestrained in your choices,
then why shouldn't everyone else have that same right ?i
'Normal' criminal behaviour - in mankindhttp://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1293669294/0#0 Quote:
Why when we remove the light of day, and the restraining / calming influence of society / authority do many ppl behave in this way?
Why?
The TRUTH is that for many of us, human 'civility' is paper thin.
Why so?
Because many of us 'normal' people, demonstrate [when unrestrained] that we are 'normal' human beings who are vain, selfish, lecherous, greedy, violent creatures, when we are without restraint.
And, we demonstrate that we have no moral compass.
Why so?
Why do ppl start to behave immorally [violently] towards others, when they think that they are unrestrained by authority?
