Nobody deserves to get hit by a car, but if you're running across a highway then what do you expect.
> Which is it? Your government is taking measures to assure your protection, or is actively provoking foreigners to kill you on your own soil?

>I'm quite happy my government takes measures to assure a certain level of personal safety, both physical and psychological.
