So, it can become hard; respecting culture and following country laws at the same time. This makes both parties confused and frustrated. More harm is done.

That is how I view it and what might be possibly happening.

That is a large part of it. But that's why a solid and uncompromising legal system needs to be in place that doesn't tolerate abuse of any sort from either of both parties.

A lot of people feel like migrants have been granted "special privileges" in the form of "extra tolerance" for certain unacceptable behaviours. I still believe that most migrants are reasonable people, and that the assholes amongst them are still a minority. But seriously... the double-standards don't fool most people. It's a bad idea to treat people as if they are idiots. Even if they actually are idiots. It doesn't fool most people, and most people don't appreciate it either. Even 2nd generation immigrants dislike it. And even 1st generation immigrants often think it's ridiculous, and a "legal loophole" to be exploited.

People are kind of sick of it... basically. I'm too tired to drag this out.

I've thought the same in the past. Then I thought about it more, and realised it isn't easy to "isolate" them at all. To recognise one in the first place, you have to catch him "off-guard". Otherwise, one can look, sound, and seem like one of the nicest people you've ever met. Often, you wouldn't even suspect it.

It's when their fake facade slips from time to time, that you get to see their true colours. There are ways to provoke them, and read typical reactions of such people. One for example is, that they hate criticism (although this does also overlap with narcissists), especially in front of people. It challenges their "authority" and "power". Do that... and watch their breathing speed up. Although narcissists hate it for different reasons.

I noticed this with some teachers back in school. With some teachers, if someone pointed out an error they made on the board... the kid would get a an extra few points on their homework (or something like that). But with some teachers... well, they're not allowed to hit students in the UK, but thelook they gave you spoke for itself. P.S. one of them is serving 5 years for having child porn.

I didn't know about psychopaths then... but I did notice the stark difference between certain types of people.
