Nope, he' really like that. The whole respect for property thing ties neatly in with his feelings about this country as a whole though. He thinks of it as the land of opportunity and has said that he's seen some pretty extreme poverty and that where he comes from if you've got nothing you stay at the bottom - there is no opportunity to climb. So it probably just doesn't make sense to him that people are trying to make a lovely house look like a slum in the ghetto. *shrug*

Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree, but that's how I see it. Yeah, he is over-sensitive but he's not British, his mindset is different to ours.
