Comment on I would watch that ngl

  Well when the laws don’t work for the people, they are more likely to break them. As you say, it’s understandable.

  The laws and regulations that need fixed.

  I knew this guy I met while helping out at a community garden and they kept having problems with school kids walking through the garden lot. Not intentionally stepping on plants but part of the path they were wearing into the ground did go through the watermelon patch.

  The back of the school basically emptied out to the back of the garden lot. So kids would cut through it to get home.

  This garden guy kept complaining about them. Said they were going to have to pay for a big fence.

  I said. Well these kids have to walk around 3 blocks to not cut through. They aren’t going to do that. And isn’t it kinda rude to force them to? (Based on how worn the foot path was) I said, They’ve been walking through here for years.

  Maybe instead of a fence. Make a path for them. They will walk on a path if it’s efficient. And then you can direct them from walking on the plants and making a dirt path that gets muddy when it rains.

  Nope Fence.

  I still think my idea was better. Make spaces work for people. Make guidelines that work for the people . And then people won’t be breaking them.

    No, I say it’s understandable because lunatics in muslim countries tend to kill minority. How can your analogy relevant in this discussion?

      What? We are talking about undocumented people in the U.S and I gave an example about how restrictions don’t help the problem but we could instead make it work for both parties.

        Lenient restriction is the one that not working, comparing to stricter one like in North Korea and China, these kind of violation was so rare even next to nothing.
