902 conflict

Many times, when the cost of crime is too low, the law will inevitably become the guardian of criminals.

This sounds ridiculous, but it is actually very realistic. The tools used by legal persons to restrain people. While restraining bad people, they will also restrain good people. The definition of "good people" and "bad people" are often vague in law, which inevitably gives people an opportunity. People who abide by laws will definitely not study the law all day long. They only do things within the scope of the law. Those who violate the law can try as long as the law does not prohibit it.

In most cases, the cost of trying is very low. Even if it is a matter of harming nature, as long as the law does not prohibit it, those who are ill-hearted can do whatever they want, while those who abide by the law will be hindered.

Of course, this situation rarely occurs in Vladivostok. The Vladivostok state government follows the mainland legal system and will be equipped with a jury during trials. The role of this jury is greater than that of many juries in the United States. Sometimes, the law even needs to make concessions to the jury. As long as the criminal acts determined by the jury are not clearly stipulated by the law, the jury can be properly sentenced by the jury.

This is very terrifying. One thing must be clear that the norms of the law must be lagging behind the practical significance. Many times, criminal acts will promote the improvement of the law. This is the significance of the jury. Even if the law does not stipulate, the jury can be sentencing appropriately, which sounds a wake-up call for more people. Don’t think that the law is lawless without the field involved. As long as the criminal act identified by the jury is in a blank state, the criminal act will be punished accordingly.

Of course, this model in Vladivostok is not legally standardized, but who cares? Everyone grits their teeth for criminals. Even if the sentencing of juries sometimes exceeds the norm, no one will blame the jury system for being too harsh.

Well, in fact, this phenomenon basically does not exist among the Chinese community. The prevalent clan punishment among Chinese is actually similar to the jury system. Many times, the customary conventions between clans are more binding than the law. Who would risk the world's worst for a criminal? There is also a saying among Chinese people that "destroy relatives for justice". This is not cruel and ruthless, it is called sacrificing the small family for everyone.

The jury members in Vladivostok are not fixed. Generally speaking, Vladivostok will form a jury of nearly twenty people, half of which are state assemblymen or city councillors, and half of the remaining half are senior lawyers, and then residents' representatives.

This resident representative is not a casual position. There are many non-governmental organizations in Vladivostok, such as the rifle association, the agricultural association, and the Chinese chambers of commerce in various places. The final representatives emerged from these non-governmental organizations. They also hate the rule destroyers. Therefore, in Vladivostok, if a person violates the law or his behavior touches the moral bottom line of the whole society, he will definitely pay a profound price, which will make him remember for life.

"Ryan, we must pay attention to improving the role of women, not just in the family. Women will perform better than men when they do not require heavy physical labor. If possible, I hope Vladivostok is the state that attaches the most importance to women in the United States. Now local women do not have the right to vote. What is the idea if women in Vladivostok have the right to vote?" Li Mu is willing to improve women's social status, but it cannot be compulsive. We must let the whole society reach a consensus.

It is a pity that modern society, although nominally a patriarchal society and men dominate in society, in the family, the bonds that maintain a family are often women, but women do not achieve social status that matches social roles, which makes Li Mu very sorry.

Of course, Li Mu definitely does not want Vladivostok to improve the status of women in women, which will develop into the origin of the rise of the feminist movement. In fact, Li Mu does not oppose the feminist movement, but Li Mu opposes all disputes provoked by the feminist movement under the excuses of the feminist movement.

In another time and space, the feminist movement in the Republic has reached a perverted level. Many people call women to be self-reliant, but they do not understand the meaning of the word "self-reliance and self-reliance". If you want to be self-reliant, you must first be self-reliant. Many girls earn a salary of 3,000 yuan, but they hope to have a boyfriend with a monthly salary of 30,000 yuan, and they must completely control their boyfriend's income. They occupy a dominant position in the family. This is a kind of unclear self-positioning. Even if you find such a boyfriend, your boyfriend will not be able to bear to leave her in the end. If the consequences cannot be found are more serious, it will become that everyone does not meet their standards.

In fact, at this time, we should consider more whether our requirements are unrealistic. "Phoenix Man" corresponds to "Peacock Girl". These two words should have been very inspiring, but the times have given these two words too much negative information.

We can't blame them. In that era of information explosion, how many people could maintain their inner persistence?

Li Mu couldn't even keep it himself.

"Voting rights, of course, are good, but we cannot avoid a problem. Most women do not have jobs. They serve their families in their daily lives, rarely go out, do not understand external things, and do not know how society has developed. So how can this ensure that they can vote for the right person? "Ryan Matthew is not opposed to giving women the right to vote. What really worries Ryan Matthew is that women cannot guarantee that their votes can play their due role.

Unlike rational men, most women are emotional, which means that their choices are easily affected by the objective environment, which is very dangerous. When the Republican Party has an absolute social advantage, women's votes are insignificant, but now the Democratic Party is gradually threatening the Republican Party, and the votes are gradually approaching. Ryan Matthew does not want to see any accidents, even if it is just a possible accident.

"Voting rights are just the beginning. In the future, women will gradually go out of their homes and engage in more social work. You should have discovered that in some positions, men's performance is not as good as women, and we should give women more opportunities." Li Mu did not improve women's social status without principles. There are information that women-oriented families are more conducive to family stability, which fully demonstrates the status of women in the family. Perhaps many people do not recognize it, but the fact is that if the whole society is based on families, then women are the basic core of society.

It seems that Li Mu is not necessary to worry about this, but in fact, Li Mu has his own plans.

Vladivostok is a attempt by Li Mu. If Vladivostok improves the social status of women, it will not cause severe social turmoil. Then after returning to New York, Li Mu will suggest more local prefectures to learn from Vladivostok's experience.

A fact that cannot be ignored is that in the presidential elections or local elections in recent years, the Republican Party’s advantages are gradually shrinking, and even the advantages have been reversed. At this time, the Republican Party actually needs a breakthrough and a new vote growth point to allow more people to support the Republican Party and complete the suppression of the Democratic Party.

Li Mu pressed his treasure on those women who had not yet obtained the right to vote. The Democratic gang of macho men would definitely not notice the power women have. This is a good breakthrough. If it can be implemented smoothly, then Li Mu would not have to worry about the Republican support rate in the next 20 or 30 years.

"Reim, this is not something we should care about. Neither of us is a member of the National Committee. This seems to be a headache for the National Committee. Now we are all in Vladivostok, so we should focus more on Vladivostok. If you have time, I would suggest you to expand the power of the Vladivostok branch of Junma Building. Although the Japanese and Goryeo are very useful, we cannot continue to hire those Japanese and Goryeo, which is not in our interest." Ryan Matthew understood Li Mu's intention, but did not think that women could change the decline of the Republican Party.

"Okay, you're right." Li Mu didn't want to argue with Ryan Matthew. Although Li Mu did not agree with Ryan Matthew's opinion, Li Mu was not a dictator.

"A bad news-" Li Jeff interrupted the communication between Li Mu and Ryan Matthew. When he saw Ryan Matthew, Li Jeff hesitated for a moment.

Li Mu did not say anything, but made a random gesture to let Li Jeff speak out if there is any problem.

"Reim, a bad news. Today, an immigration group of about 100 people tried to cross the border and enter Vladivostok, but was intercepted by the Qing border defense forces. About 20 to 30 people were killed by the Qing border defense forces, and the rest were arrested. The Pacific Company arranged for people to respond at the border, but unfortunately, they had not entered Vladivostok yet. Two people in the Pacific Company were hit by stray bullets, and one of them was seriously injured-" Li Jeff's report did not grasp the key points. This is normal. The Qing government did not oppose Chinese immigration to Vladivostok, but it was the first time to use weapons, which made Li Jeff a little confused. He did not understand why the Qing border defense force had the confidence to shoot at the employees of the Pacific Company.

"Wait - Jeff, are you saying that someone in the Pacific Company was injured in a conflict?" Li Mu grabbed the key keenly, which is called sleepy and someone immediately gave him a pillow. Even if there was no conflict, Li Mu was ready to create one or two conflicts. Now, this is an excuse to deliver it to his door.

"Yes, some of us were injured in the conflict. When we found out that the immigrants were trying to cross the border, the Qing Border Defense Forces fired the gun. The people from the Pacific Company wanted to stop it, but were hit by a stray bullet-" Li Jeff repeated it and found no problem was found in the area.

"Strand bullets - Haha, Jeff, don't you understand the probability of strand bullets hitting people? One person was hit might be an accident, but two people were hit, and one was seriously injured, so it was no longer just strand bullets. Ryan, does the Qing border defense forces' shooting skills have not reached this level?" Li Mu did not believe how well-trained the Qing troops were. Even if it was a formal US Army, he would not dare to say that the results were so excellent.

Regarding stray bullets injuring people, this probability is actually similar to the cannon killing mosquitoes. Perhaps it is not as efficient as cannon killing mosquitoes. Li Mu did not know how many bullets each soldier of the Qing border guards would carry when he went on a mission in this era, but he would never be able to hit people casually.

It is only possible to hit people casually. In fact, in the Pacific War, the US military could kill and injure an enemy at an average of three tons of ammunition. In the four-year Patriotic War, the Soviet army consumed an average of 30 shells, 1,300 bullets, 9 grenades, and 230 kilograms of aviation bombs.

If this data is not vivid enough, then during the Vietnam War, the US military fired an average of 50,000 bullets to destroy one enemy.

Then during the Iraq War, the same unit of ammunition consumption increased sharply to 200,000 rounds.

Are the shooting results of US soldiers so poor?

No, no matter how bad it is, it is better than the shooting results of the Qing army. In this way, the casualties of the Pacific Company are no longer accidental injuries, and this is a deliberate provocation.

Really!

Li Mu was racking his brains to find excuses to provoke war, but he didn't expect that the excuses would be delivered to him so easily now.

"Send a telegram to Leo and ask Leo to go to the Zongli Yamen to give a reasonable explanation and accompany appropriate compensation. If the Zongli Yamen cannot do it, then this is our declaration of war." Li Mu would not miss such an opportunity. Although Li Mu said "reasonable", everyone knows that Yan Shun's next request would definitely be blackmail, the kind of blackmail that the Qing government could not accept at all.

Well, Yan Shun had no hope of the Qing government accepting Yan Shun's extortion. It would be best if the Qing government did not agree, so Yan Shun reserves the right to take all means to retaliate.

"Is this going to start a war?" Ryan Matthew realized it and finally realized it for a while.

"If possible, of course I would not want to start a war, but this was not something I took the initiative to provoke. Qing border soldiers fired at the employees of the Pacific Company. This is a very serious political incident and we must not sit idly by. I think it is time to issue a general mobilization order. There are so many members of the Rifle Association, and we must start it in time. Our compatriots are threatened by Qing army border soldiers. This is a provocation to the dignity of our American country. We must be tougher, so that we can prove that the Rifle Association has the ability to protect the safety of all members." Li Mu changed the changes. It was obviously a small-scale border conflict, but he had to make a big deal.

In fact, it is not a big deal, unless Li Mu is indifferent and allows the Pacific Company to be shot dead by the Qing border guards.

But how is this possible?
