Rape and assault are also illegal in the US. For that matter, so is walking down the street drunk off your ass. What would happen to your sister if she puked on the street?

Streets were clean with NO TRASH anywhere. Fines for littering were large and enforced, right down to gum, spitting, curbing your dog and cleaning it up.

Again, these are things that are illegal in most of the U.S. So are they much more law abiding in Singapore because they censor the mail - and find deviant plans to spit on the sidewalk before they are carried out?

While these things may not be important to you, they mean something to me since I currently live in a city where you can do whatever you want and no one cares.

Where is this? Surely not the U.S. We do have laws here.

I've seen human feces in public places where you'd not expect them to be like going down strairs at the Port Authority Bus terminal.

I've seen human feces in El Salvador. The punishment there for pretty much anything is death.

I've seen crackheads smoking crack in parks, subway trains, in front of families.

I've never seen this, and DC is supposed to be the crackhead capitol of the world.

I know of people mugged for their ipods.
I know people assualted and raped.

Again, how does opening personal mail stop this? Thugs don't write. Terrorists don't mug people for their ipods.
