You might be surprised. I love this country so much.

Is there a non-digital version of a finger trap? 🥁
You ought to give it a try, we're fun!
Why are people arrested? So many reasons. Cops are stupid and racist covers a good bit. Now more than anytime since slavery. There's also the huge prison-industrial complex which makes big bucks keeping prisons filled.
Americans do not know that it is different. I saw something once that the vast majority of Americans die within 50 miles of where they were born. I'm of the opinion that travel cures ignorance, but most people just don't really do it. First off it can be expensive, and secondly going on a cruise doesn't count, I don't care if you got off the boat in Jamaica for three hours and bought some trash in a confined area. Sorry, but you haven't been to Jamaica.
Do you think there's much of a correlation between quality of people's character and whether or not they've been arrested? Also I never mentioned prison but there are plenty of fine folks in the big house too.
Why not? Honestly why not? I would at least be entertained.
Do you live in the US? Most people I know have been arrested.
I was reading your comment, trying to decide if you're a liar or just that bougie. Then second paragraph. Most of my friends have been arrested at least once. I've been four times.
It is important here to note that in the US, prison is for sentences over one year and jail is under one year. That is not strictly 100% true but it's good enough to sort out the jail/prison terms problem. I've only been to prison to do some work. It was maximum security for what it's worth, and it was much nicer than any jail I've been too. People acted normally instead of totally fucking unhinged.
I'd rather do a year in prison than six months in jail.
I saw a person recording local villagers, who live in serious poverty, washing their clothes in the river near the Guatemala/Belize border -- on a first gen iPad. I don't think I had seen an iPad before. I wanted to hurt that man.
Didn't care much for the music although I like the message. I heard about Kneecap on BBC when Mo Chara was in jail, and I love this group. I'm not sure what they did after Bob Vylan played but there is an attempt to get their performance scrubbed from the internet.
If you're in the US I can PM you the name of the service I used to get diagnosed. First attempt I was given what I later learned was a very outdated test, after which I was told "your job is too hard for someone with ADHD".
I love your country and am considering moving there. I just got divorced and I'm going to do a big shake up of my life. If I don't get this job in Texas and I can get my balls in order, I might just do it. Ticos son la gente muy generoso y amistosa. Tengo solo un poco español pero vivir en Costa Rica? Yo estudio muy rapido en la pais.
