To go into some more details-
Good: Serious crimes are punished - I don't expect anyone to get away with murder. There are no political crimes, you won't get imprisoned for being against the government. Minimal religious influence on laws.
Bad: Small crimes like theft is are not treated consistently. Unlike some who call for harsher penalties I disagree. I think the penalties are appropriate but a lot of cases go ignored. If every case was processed even with a metaphorical slap on the wrist, there would basically be no theft.
To be seen: Command responsibility. Recently there was a case where a government official's inaction during a natural disaster resulted in people dying. Some would have died anyway but it could have been minimized if they acted quickly. The trial is in progress, we'll see what comes of it, but the laws exist.
That sounds pretty reasonable, may I ask which country you live in? Or in which region of the world?
