Re: "Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime"

Problem is tough sentencing only works if the person commiting the crime believe's they will be caught. Many of the wrong do'ers these days simply don't believe they will get caught so why worry about the sentence you might get if your caught. If the government wants to be taken seriously then we need to get to a stage where somebody doing anything wrong knows there is a good chance of being caught and severely punished then we will see less of this sort of thing.
