Life / Polish vs British vs American - Clash of cultures [390]
So I'm reading a news article about how they caught the thief who stole from a unconscious dude lying on the railroad track, then left him there until a train arrived and cut his foot off. It's the usual "immigrant... bla, bla, bla... identified by neighbors... bla, bla, bla", but then I came upon this "can't be charged for leaving a man to die because Sweden doesn't have a law that requires people to save lives (if not endangered themselves), it all comes down to human decency..." I was like...
...hmmm...
then
what??
SERLIOUSLY?!!
I still remember that in school here in Poland they wasted 45 minutes explain to us how this works and described some cases as examples. What kind of a sh!thole doesn't have such a basic law? Jesus, Sweden!
