“ In a warrior based society, when you make a threat of violence or death towards another, you had better be prepared to back it up with your weapons.

Trying to back out at this point is considered cowardice and results in being disgraced.”

“ In a society, people who are in a higher postition of authority have a bigger incentive to stay on the right side of the law since the more authority you have, the punishments for criminal activities become much more severe.
