Do you think it's a lot of people who come from 3rd world countries where there isnt much rule of law where they came from?

I recently witnessed in Baltimore after a minor traffic jam a car didnt want to wait in traffic so they went onto the oncoming traffic ramp heading straight down where another car could be coming the right way.

I had the same thought like WTH people are just doing whatever they want and are really that stupid / ignorant of how dangerous not following traffic and roadway patterns are.

Uggh scary to think that the US could slowly becoming a 2nd to 3rd world country.

Bud, do you really think it's immigrants primarily breaking the law in Baltimore of all places?

umm not sure on that one I didnt see the driver but in Phoenix i dont know maybe... and this is a throwaway so im being xenophobic to provoke thought as Im tired of this laissez faire attitude on our laws ... it is a decay of society if we are not following the laws set in place to have and maintain a peaceful society. We become a 2nd to 3rd world country if laws are not followed as they are not followed in 2nd and 3rd world countries rather run by gangs, dirty cops and etc.

Xenophobia and racism are moral decay, and you are actively promoting them.

Well, you are being Xenophobic but it's not thought provoking. Violent crime has been higher in the US than most third world countries my whole life, we are actually trending safer since the 80s. This is not an immigration/3rd world country thing, it's an American thing. 3rd world countries are just poorer but most of them are really safe.

The USA is the richest country in the world by a long way. How exactly is it suddenly becoming a 3rd world nation? I see this kind of hand wringing often from Americans, and I find it puzzling.

Its a slow decay...

- We now allow anyone to go into a store and steal up to $1k worth of goods and they can do so without consequence

- Ive witnessed drivers driving on the wrong side of the road going into oncoming traffic cause they didnt want to wait in traffic

- There is one to two mass school shootings a month in the US. How many do you have in your country?

I agree the crime situation is a problem, but what has that to do with 3rd world status?

No rule of law is followed and or exists it becomes a 2nd or 3rd world country as people flee the country like they are in many South American countries for the US
