Okay, apparently there's no good show left in the world. Even the ones I thought were good and didn't have these moralistic / christian / uberamerican traits always end up disappointing me ;_;. I was just watching Judging Amy and there she asked some cop about a theoretic case. At least I think it was, I didn't see the beginning. Anyway, this is what I heard.

She asked him what he'd do with a 13 year old Swedish boy that committed a crime. They ended up agreeing that he'd have to be deported and then it'd be left to the Swedish government what to do with him. And then he said that he'd probably end up in the army and that the average recruiting age of Sweden is between 12 and 15 and that Sweden has been in a war for over 50 years.

...

THE FUCK?!?

I'm... lacking words. Utterly. This doesn't make sense whatsoever! O.o;;; I don't even remember the last time Sweden was involved in any war.

Edit

Urgh. Okay, watched the rest now. Apparently Amy took this random Swedish boy as an example since they couldn't talk about the case and the cop got the idea and just assumed they were talking about the Afghan boy and this is why his answer ended up so odd. But still! Out of context this was outrageous >_<. What if someone else watched this and then moved on and now thinks Sweden is such a country? Bleh... I hate stuff like that.

But there's a good thing about it. At least Judging Amy doesn't suck now! XD

I love Judging Amy ;_;. I love it because it's not perfect or moralistic. I love how the mother always is so cold and doesn't show her love a lot, but she tries, and how it rubbed off on Amy and she often can't be that warm to her daughter. I love it how it's realistic! She's not pouring all over her daughter, but instead she thinks her singing sucks or doesn't want her to sleep in one bed with her because she smells out of her mouth. Stuff like that. It's not all sugar-coated. But yes, it often does have some odd topics. Like I HAAAAAAAAAAATE Gillian and her fucking pregnancy >_<;;. And mostly when they get into racial issues I'm starting to cringe. But it's a good show. Yes.

Dude, I was so relieved when I read the edit. 'Cause you know, Sweden, pretty close to home here in Iceland. Scandinavia and all.

And you're totally right, I'm -so- glad Amy doesn't suck 'cause I love that show!

Yes! It was a huge relief for me, too! XD
