Is that it? Was he an agricultural trainee who stole produce that would have failed inspection at the time of shipment?
There are comments about agricultural theft like “Only a professional can harvest so quickly” *There are quite a few greengrocers run by foreigners in urban areas There are vegetables with scratches and shapes that suggest they didn’t come from the market, but the Metropolitan Police Department is ignoring them The victim farmers should lecture the police in urban areas about their laziness If the victim is from another prefecture, it’s the police who are ignoring them.
>>28 They’re just picking things that grow naturally. Are you saying that all the old folks out there who pick wild vegetables and those who dig for clams in the sea are criminals?
>>31 Picking wild vegetables → It’s ok if you own the mountain Clamming → Usually you pay for it, but if you don’t have permission it’s of course a crime.
Just looking at this makes me feel like there’s an infinitely high wall between humans and non-humans lol. For the sake of the Chinese and Koreans who will be judged by the laws of humanity, it would be better if you went home.
In their country, when a truck flips over, people from the surrounding area gather in droves and don’t offer to help the driver, just pick up the fallen cargo and go home lol.
