The captain said, "If you know that the people around you are going to talk about breaking the law, and you don't want to be an informer, go away before they do." If someone calls you about something illegal, remember to call the police immediately. It doesn't matter if the person calling you knows or doesn't, or if your parents, wife and children are the same. Call the police, because it's the hook, and the phone recording will land you in jail. People who don't like and aren't used to calling the police in the United States have been arrested. ”

Zhang Cheng: "What's the benefit of the federal police arresting so many people?" The government already spends a lot on prisons, and I've heard that many prisons are already overcrowded. ”

"That's the deeper question," said the captain. First of all, this is a white society, and they naturally think that blacks are violent elements, Vietnamese are refugees, Fuzhou Chinese gangs are snakeheads, and South Americans and Thais are drug dealers. So, prisons are forever filled with a large number of people of color — white Americans can still get a fair trial, as long as they don't offend those with special energy.

And then there's the political issue, you see, for example, this year the federal police and the FBI have used hooks to create a large number of 'drug lords' as political achievements, and the candidates can speak to the voters -- you see we have caught so many drug dealers this year to protect social stability, and the people in charge of handling cases have been promoted. There is also the ability to apply for more funding for next year's case - you see that there are so many drug dealers, how can the money last year be enough.

Prisons are overcrowded, but this necessitates the construction of more prisons, which in turn increases employment – construction workers and prison guards. Prisoners are also used as cheap labor in privately contracted prisons – so that the capitalists are happy, and they are happy to increase the federal deficit. ”

Leaf: "Wow couple." It's really bad to label people, and besides, not all Chinese Americans are from Fuzhou. ”

The captain said: "Speaking of Chinese, I used to catch a lot. There are also those who have been imprisoned on the mainland, and according to them, the laws and prisons in China and the United States are very different. There are a few points:

1. If you have a lawsuit in China and spend money to entrust people, you can turn big things into small things and small things into small things. Good; And the United States. There is no way to spend money on people, if you can't get it right, it will give you an extra charge, which is not good.

2. Mainland public security beatings. Torture to extract confessions. Not good; U.S. police officers do not hit, swear, discipline, or be polite in prison. Good.

3. The living conditions in mainland prisons are too poor and not good; The living conditions in American prisons are very good, good.

4. Only the mainland is arrested based on evidence for handling cases. If there is no evidence, people will not be arrested, and even if they are arrested, once they are found to be wrong, they will be released immediately, okay; The United States does not pay attention to evidence in handling cases, and if someone talks nonsense and bites you, you will be arrested, and as long as there are tainted witnesses and no evidence is needed, you can be convicted and bad.

5. The laws of the mainland are clear, what crime has been committed and how much punishment is imposed, it is very clear and specific, and there is not much room for it, so it is good; The U.S. law stipulates that the sentence range is too large, and for the same crime, you can be released in court or sentenced to life imprisonment, if you commit a felony, or even murder, you can be let go on the spot, and if you commit a very small crime, you can also be imprisoned for ten or eight years, and the sentencing does not depend on what crime you have committed, but on the degree of cooperation you have! Bad.

6. On the surface, China's public security is fierce and vicious, but in fact, it can only engage you in labor reform, fines, or rarely a few years in prison, and you are not afraid; The American police officer is gentle and friendly to you, "Your crime is XX to life imprisonment according to the law", there is a murderous motive behind the gentle and kind smile, and life imprisonment is enough to make you frightened, full of mental intimidation, not good. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard it. I didn't think that there are so many bad things about the law of the lighthouse country, but considering that American law is actually a lawyer society, and lawyers are a group of people who benefit from it as vested interests, it is really difficult to improve.

Ye Zi: "Then I'm also Chinese, as a person of color, isn't it very dangerous." ”

Former Coast Guard Captain: "First of all, try not to leave any criminal records – including those in foreign countries. In the eyes of the judge and the jury, the person with a criminal record is a black piece of paper, and the person without a criminal record is a blank piece of paper.

In this way, if a person kills someone, but he has no criminal record, he may be released after a few years in prison, and the bail is not very difficult, and the bail will not be too high. But the other person was sentenced for theft for the third time, and the third time he was sentenced to life imprisonment — the third time he committed the same crime in the United States, both of which were life imprisonment, and the prosecutor did not have to negotiate it.

Also, although most states and federal laws do not have the death penalty, there are a few states that still retain the death penalty, and personally, I still like the death penalty, because some criminals don't care at all that they will be sentenced to hundreds of years or life in prison once they go to prison. Instead, they will intensify their efforts to do more cases before being arrested, especially some self-defeating blacks, who always think that white Americans are sorry they owe them.

Many times I think that some criminals have anti-social tendencies, but prosecutors always don't agree to prosecute them on that charge, sometimes simply because the criminal is black and not Muslim — and there is a lot of power among blacks and Latinos in the United States right now.

Second, increase your wealth and power. After all, the law is for politics, if you have good relationships with legislators, prosecutors, judges, and police chiefs locally. No one is going to prosecute you, even if you are really guilty.

And a lot of wealth can hire a team of lawyers to work for you - believe me, the free lawyer you are assigned is definitely the worst kind that will only make you plead guilty and reduce his own workload, anyway, because he is assigned, only a little money to take and the suspect will plead guilty one by one. Remember, this is America, a money society.

Do you know that in American prisons, prisoners can buy pornographic magazines like Playboy, and the Federal Police originally wanted to ban these bad habits for them, but the backstage of these magazines is too hard -- a large part of the campaign funds of the two parties is in the hands of the bosses of these magazines, and this kind of power is not at all something that the Federal Police can afford to provoke, and in the end, they can only compromise and let the prison inmates buy pornographic magazines at will.

I'll just briefly talk about how much energy the owners of pornographic magazines have, and when the Lewinsky scandal broke out by Democratic President Clinton, some Republicans used it to attack Clinton and the Democratic Party, and at that time they wanted to impeach the president.

At this time, a Democratic Party bigwig, who is also the owner of a pornographic magazine, came forward and publicly published the news that anyone had evidence of a million-dollar acquisition of a high-level Republican sex scandal. For a million-dollar bounty, many people broke the news about the sex scandal of high-ranking Republican Party figures.

The Democratic boss allegedly got hold of seven high-ranking Republican sex scandals, and then broke one in his pornographic magazine, and the man was quickly impeached and removed from office. Because I don't know who the remaining six are in the road - men, there are always very few who can not make mistakes. This incident put everyone in the top echelons of the Republican Party in danger, and the impeachment case against Clinton was finally closed.

$7 million, and it was settled. It's a tiny, tiny sum of money for these people.

Third, be careful in what you say and do, and hold yourself to the standards of the saints. Don't say vague things on the phone, which will often serve as strong evidence for the prosecution. If the other person's words are criminal, remember not to hesitate to call the police immediately – a higher rate will make the police in your area think they still need to exist.

Chinese Americans generally hate violent crime and drugs — they don't even want to call the police when they are robbed, and they are not as easy to send in as black people, but they are not without weakness, that is, they are greedy for small things.

For example, a person who has been in contact with you calls you and says that he has a batch of drugs or smuggled goods worth 20,000 yuan and asks you to think of a way. At this time, you may remember that there is a B who contacted you a few days ago and wants to spend 40,000 yuan to buy drugs or smuggled goods. Who is not tempted by a transaction of tens of thousands of yuan? So as soon as he promised A, the federal police came to arrest him.

In fact, there are no drugs and smuggled goods at all, A and B are hooks set up by the federal police, and since more than ten years ago, they have used this trick to deal with Chinese Americans.

The federal police did not say publicly, in fact, there is still a crime solving index in local police stations, and if the detection rate of the Chinese community is too low, the local federal police will appear to be too incompetent - this will lead to the priority of the people in this police station when layoffs, and everyone is doing this for the sake of jobs, at least I can understand.

There is such an example in the arrest of the murderer White Wolf in the Jiangnan case, where a hook carrying drugs and recording equipment was in a hotel room and talked to White Wolf and others about how to make money in the drug trade. Then the F.B.I. officers broke down the door and seized the stolen goods, and the hooks that went to court to talk about the drug deal had become tainted witnesses — a common tactic used by the FBI and the federal police.

In the eyes of Americans, drug trafficking is not a violent crime like armed robbery, and non-violent crimes are still tolerable to a certain extent. And if you are caught selling drugs for the third time, you will be imprisoned for life. The main thing is that the main body of drug use is blacks. ”

Zhang Cheng had only one reaction to the shady scenes: ", it's too dark." ”

But after thinking about it, Americans are also human beings, and since they are human beings, they inevitably have the weakness of human nature - fame and fortune, and a captain like a captain who is full of discipline and has a strong sense of justice is naturally not likable. Unless she is lucky enough to meet a team with a strong sense of justice, of course, the odds are lower than winning the lottery, otherwise being fired is also a matter of course - when the water is clear, there are no fish.
