First Freddy, I have to ask, because as soon as I post something you are there like glue stick on paper. Do you have a thing for me? Should we exchange phone numbers?
After that, yes, of course I realize that about 150k foreigners can not have a crime rate percentage over a population of roughly 70M. You don´t need to be a genius to grasp that, right Freddy?
I can also see that you clearly understand, as everybody else here, that the reason is lack of enforcement. I give you 5 point for that awesome reflection.
Now, we come to the core of your reply. That is you question if I apologize for the locals committing crimes? What a weird question. Why would I do that? Do I belong to that group? Does it reflect on me as a foreigner if locals break the law, behave bad or can´t keep it together? The answer, Freddy, is a big fat NO! However, if you look at the daily amount of bad publicity from foreigners in the news, that is not because we are a singled out minority.
It´s because the news should make the locals vigilante in reporting and give them knowledge of bad behavior from tourists and expats. As that is happening, it brings us as a group in a bad light. That´s the people I apologized for, as they lack the brains to do it themselves.
