For years everyone goes on about tough on crime etc, the basic answer is, the courts, they are far to soft on offenders. When l was a kid, parents and POLICE were allowed to whack kids for being nuaghty with the parents permission, now it has all been stopped, and they are allowed to get away with it, its that simple, When l was at school, you got the cane or the slipper, now they can't do that.

IF people know they will get away with it, they will commit more crime, IF they go to prison, they will learn about how to commit more crime when they come out, so it goes round in a circle.
