One particular paragraph of interest, maybe sheds a little light on some issues around here lately:
Established middle-class diaspora Afghans are understandably upset and embarrassed to see their nationality thus disgraced by these uncouth newcomers. And yet they are part of the problem. Many of their actions and reactions, however natural or unintended, amount to complicity. They cover up, make excuses for, advise on best ways to wriggle out of consequences, and even directly abet the deceptions, illegal acts and disgraceful manners of friends, relatives and random unknown fellow Afghans.
Maybe explains why some folks take up for the cops, some folks take up for the criminals, etc. in previous threads.
Anyways, back to the article. I think that can explain crime in a lot of places. Basically just a lack of respect for the home culture, due to many reasons.
