This has been a problem for a while and seems to be growing, but why is this happening in our culture. My simplistic answer is population. The larger the population the more problems you have from dirtbags. We have a population of over 300-million, Norway has a population of just over 5-million. So any dirtbags they have will be slight, compared to a country with 300-million.
However, that is, as I said, simplistic and it's not the entire reason, culture does play in. So is there something in our culture that is a major factor? Interesting question that I don't have the answer to.
