I notice rhat in some areas of the world and even the UK they have high crime rates and I was wondering why? It is almost as if those who steal think they have a right to steal someone elses property? I suppose they don't mind ending up in Hell one day but why is it that criminals tend to livein the cities and large towns?
Why is it rare for criminals to live in the countryside? Well. To be honest, criminals would not last long living in the countryside to begin with as they need to co-operation of others to survive the harsh winters. Everyone helps each other so if someone is in difficulty and has a need someone else will help. That's how things work. People keep themselves to themselves but at the same time are there for wach other and appreciate each other, so a criminal element living in such a place does not last long, and besides this, the locals are all too keen to take the law into their own hands if they did start to steal.
It is a case of live and let live unless there is a problem, and then it is dealt with.
City and town life I find puzzling. I used to think how lucky they were to have shops closeby and even streetlamps near their houses and everyone must be soo loving and forgiving to live near each other like that... But someone told me that people living in places like London do not even know or speak to their neighbors! What? That's CRAZY! I mean... What are they doing? They have so many people they can talk to and no one talks? Are they MAD? I mean... Well. I just can't fathom out HOW they are able to live like that, as here, even in the more populated areas, if one is walking down the street and someone comes towards you walking the other way, and if they walk past without saying "Hello" or nodding or smiling, they are considered to be rude people. It is why people who have moved from the cities to live down here tend not to do too well because people offer them no favours if they ignore others in the street. Even our towns are kind of close knit where everyone knows everyone or knows someone that knows someone else. It is how things are here. It is why my parents moved out to be in the countryside because we tend to be a bit more eccentric, and in a close knit community, a town or village is less accepting of the more unusual characters, but the countryside is ideal as out here everyone is a bit odd! Haha! (And we love each other for it too!) But it puzzles me how people can live in big cities and not talk much to each other. No wonder people grow up thinking they can steal because they have no concept of respect for others who live there because they simply don't talk. (I don't mean smalltalk. I mean ANY talk!)
Communities in the countryside.. The more rural one gets the less crime there is because the people appreciate each other more. In some places their houses do not even have locks on their doors. They don't need them.
What a contrast!
