Mildly Interesting

It's not that bad in a train, as people can't just run away before the next stop. You wouldn't have this level of trust in a street cafe for instance.

Just today some bastard stole my headlight from my bike. Like two hours ago. Finland. We're known as rather honest.

But the junkie who desperately needed a 10e flashlight is welcome to have it, the pathetic sack of shit.

Same in Seoul. As a white guy from NYC it blew my fucking mind to see people just leave their stuff at cafes off busy streets. I don't leave my pockets unzipped yet alone leave anything I'm not actively trying to throw out unattended.

I've seen some videos of Russian tourists stealing stuff in Korea and it made national news. Here you can't get the police to file a report.

You didn't report the unattended luggage?

It's really pretty simple, happy people don't tend to be assholes. Politicians, if you want less crime don't build more prisons, make life better. I mean, that's your job isn't it?

Steal everything, leave the electronics.

It's funny how even in countries where people leave their expensive belongings unattended without worrying still sees bikes as acceptable targets as if it's like a global standard. I would also put umbrellas there too.

Me, after my soul-sucking devices are stolen on vacation: “oh no. I’m free.”

TBF on a train, there aren't a lot of places anything could disappear to unless there's a stop in between.

Trains are pretty safe but we're currently experiencing a bike crime epidemic. Which I suppose is itself very Danish.

They seem to have erected some crude red force fields around their belongings.

Brits all together now See it...

Maybe the value of the digital stuff is nothing compared to the heroin being transported in the bags!

This post stress me the hell out.

Denmark is an extremely high trust society. Babies left in the carriage outside a shop, let yourself into the library after hours with your card, often things on the street that are for sale you can just take and mobile pay (like Venmo ~~but from the government~~) someone on the honor policy.

It's nice
