People have to understand that people are conflicted. They desire things that are impossible. They want justice, they want peace, but they don't want to accept that you need force to achieve a balance. There is no utopia. Japan is "peaceful" and it's near homogenous (at least psychologically --and that's what matters) so the racism bugaboo doesn't rear its head, never the less to achieve this stasis the justice system is even worse than the beleaguered US justice system. So after a while, people forgo their ideals and revert to the hard reality and elect someone like a Duterte who promised to clean up and he did -and but for the affected families, for the most part took the bargain. People will put up with only so much insecurity. Most tyrannies don't put up with petty crimes either because petty crimes can move people to seek change.
