You have either have borders, Coventry, Exodus, assimilation, live & let live, or ...
I am reading about cuddly justice in the Germany. El Kebir wanted mass casualty events and they sentenced him to 9 years. He will serve 6 with good behaviour.
We are joined in a social compact with stupid judges. Unless we bail fast enough people like those judges will sink us.
