When I was young my mother and I went to a park. Someone approached her and asked for money. Now. In Bulgaria our paychecks are low, and we are not primitive as a population. But we've adopted a philosophy of strength in numbers. Four men that were sitting with their wife and kids got up and confronted him. During the 90's we would stop crime this way in crowded places.
It's similar to when we were evolving. A tiger would not attack a flock of elephants because there's strength in numbers and it would lose. Many countries have kept that and Bulgaria is very intelligent. If just one person loses their money for the day or their purse -that affects their ability to work the next work day. And everyone's paycheck is taxed which goes towards pensions for our grandparents; our elderly. So we did this for years (I don't know how things are now hopefully the same) and it kept the economy in good shape for our standards. I made this hypothesis from what happened along with seeing the same thing happen to another woman while I was walking through the park during daytime. Kids would go out by ourselves during the weekends because it was full of people who are ready to prevent problems.
I have to say something. The last part of my song which skandau made official may be true. "My thoughts are murky." For each person causing problems in a country there are at least one hundred normal citizens doing what they got to do at work or in school and throughout the day. That there's hope.
