Grrrrr....i feel so offended by what my loc lecturer said


'So those condition which or not prone to occur and they had their origin in external factors and not intrinsic to the accused are more likely to be regarded as not amounting to mental abnormality or mental illness such as to warrant an indefinite detention order but in some places particularly in capital jurisdiction eg Singapore where they hang lots of people than it may well be that you may wish to promote an insanity plea as the only that fate may be avoided.'

during the lecture i was offended
hearing it again while typing it out i was offended.........

we dont hang lots of people!!!!(or do we?hmmmm....)
but anyway...it came as a culture shock to me that they dont hang people for murder here and like the punsihments are so light of drugs related offences(more of this than the murder one)...
you knowusually you would expect culture shocks to come in the form of oh so this is how they do it here or porridge is oates to them and rice to us so something like that...not u mean drugs laws here are so crappy and that people arent hanged for murder....
i tell you i went into a state of shock during my tutorial...can u imagine you your whole life growing up with this particular set of mentality and suddenly finding that no here people think very extremely differently and which almost goes against what u were brainwashed...opps i mean believe in..........=)
