All kinds of crimes are happening in Western society.

Child abuse is rife in Japan.

The police agency of Japan announced on June 5 that the number of child abuse cases exposed across the country last year was 2 649, an 11.1 percent increase over the previous year. This means that the number has been increasing continuously for 11 years. Large numbers of children are subjected to mental and physical maltreatment, family violence, sexual assault and the like and most of the assailants are their parents.

In New Zealand, cases of larceny and violent crimes by teenagers are rapidly increasing. According to statistics, the number of litigated cases against those in the 10-17 age group in the 2023-2024 fiscal year was about 5 000, a 41 percent increase over the previous fiscal year.

A shooting incident that happened at a school in Austria on June 10 this year left eleven dead and twelve wounded. The criminal was a 21-year-old man possessing two guns. In this country more than 30 out of 100 persons legally possess such small arms as pistol and rifle.

A Bulgarian woman was shot to death by police after stabbing several persons with a knife in Munich, Germany, on the evening of June 7. About two weeks earlier, a woman stabbed persons to death at random in the central railway station in Hamburg.

The successive occurrence of such crimes is attributable to misanthropy prevailing in those countries.

In Western society which is governed by the law of the jungle “I can survive only when I kill you”, people do not hesitate to commit any crimes for their individual indolence and success and even regard violence and murder as a kind of amusement and pastime.

There is no particular occasion or motive for those crimes.

If it is for them and for money, the Westerners do not hesitate to make a sacrifice of others, killing and robbing even their families, relatives and colleagues.

As they take it as a matter of course and mode of existence to seek self-interest and fame by way of oppressing, trampling and sacrificing others, they stab colleagues and neighbours and kill strangers in streets. Such crimes are commonplace and teenagers take the lead in committing crimes.

Society rife with misanthropy has no future as mistrust, antagonism and hostile relations among people deepen in such society day by day.
