J-cops vs. European Counterparts

[SIZE="4"]Japan last for police trust and legitimacy[/SIZE]

Central Research Services Inc recently published a survey looking at victims of crime, etc in Japan, and comparing it with similar surveys from Europe...

First was Denmark, with just over 20% dissatisfied to some extent, almost 35% satisfied, and just under 40% totally satisfied. Sweden came next, with 80% with some degree of satisfaction, then Finland with very similar numbers. UK and Norway both had about 35% totally satisfied and just over 30% satisfied. Germany had 40% satisfied and just over 20% totally satisfied, France had 40% satisfied then just under 20% totally satisfied, and Russia had about 35% dissatisfied to some extent versus just under 40% satisfied to some extend.

However, dead last was Japan. 20% were totally dissatisfied (the highest percentage), another 25% dissatisfied (again the largest figure), only 10% were satisfied, and 5% or less totally satisfied, the lowest figures for all the countries surveyed...

The typical image Japanese have of the police is that of a dim-witted drunk, so I am pretty sure that is behind the low level of satisifaction.

Along with teachers both used to be highly respected, now both are at the bottom of the respect pile.

They certainly only asked old people for France...

The cops and retired dislike the same things... young people, arabs and black...

If you'ze a young black arab... you're like totally fucked...

I bet the white garbage you see in the background is full weed or some other illicit product.
