So, you're saying poverty has absolutely nothing to do with crime?
Can you back that up with any sort of research whatsoever? From anyone who's outside a mental hospital?
Poverty certainly does have it's traits in crime. Do you vladimir blame all poor and mental people for crime, are they all criminals?
I would not say so, most have more pressing thoughts with issues like getting medical care, getting fed and staying alive for the extreme.
The one's you should be blaming for the poverty and health, are the people running the country.
You have already posted my same sentiments on the other thread about the blue bag snatch. How do you know not one of the four accused was not in poverty, or a member of his family needing desperate care for an health issue.
Bag and phone snatching is petty crime at it's best, opportunist's to make a few fast bucks. No matter what the implications they are thieves.
