There is no crime to speak of - cars, houses and so on are never locked. If you steal from someone, it's likely you've just robbed your cousin. The sense of community seems palpably overwhelming - then again, they have no social services. Each clan looks after its members.

The first step in helping them was to remove them from the environment that had produced them. That's got to mean something.1735099https://www.blogger.com/profile/17945140949290600423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27584252.post-10443048866555582392009-09-05T21:27:15.571+10:002009-09-05T21:27:15.571+10:00I think it's
