Sentencing (criminal justice system)

[JohnD]

Have you been to texas?
I have, and i tell you, the sheriff and deputies make their presence known, especially to outsiders.
Maybe different in large cities, but in small towns, they don't mess about.
Lots of civilians with military style weapons helping the cops patrolling the streets.

And yet the have so much crime that they lock up more than 1% of the adult population.
And a murder rate of 4.6 per hundred thousand

Does it work?

Go away and see how that compares to the county you live in.

Benefit scrounging again?

What is training up?

What’s benefit scrounging? Why 'again'?

Training up = Training students for a mechanical qualification.

This, like all other discussions, is a dead horse because the usual suspects take 3 words out of 10 sentences and make up that someone is racist/homophobic/violent/insane/etc.
When in fact the only insane ones are themselves, not able to read further than a few words, just the words they don't like.
3 neurons...

When your poor points are pointed out you go crying.

Perhaps don't post the first thing that enters your mind?

You are one of the 3 neurons usual suspect.
Picking one word here and 2 words there to twist a simple concept written in plain crystal clear English.
Behave yourself, you're a laughing stock and everybody here can see it.

The irony after posting this gem.

Again, you're picking a few words out of a longer concept.
You must be related to Diane Abbott or Tony Blair.

Still safer than many areas in Uk.
Some estates here are no go areas even for the cops.

Is it now

As said, big cities have tg heir own problems with criminals, i was talking about smaller towns.
As said, try to get past the first line.
I know it's hard, maybe read one line, take notes, then wait half hour to digest it and read another line.
Repeat until you get to the end.

well go on then, show us a high-crime UK small town and a high-crime Texas small town.

I already know which will have the more murders.

So do you, that's why you won't say.

BTW you could try saving up all your sneers and insults and publishing them once a week to save time.

 

[transam]

Jonny is wriggling

Can Jonny give some examples of these no go areas?

No he can't

I say the criminal should be made to pay for repairs and reparations in full as part of the sentence - attachment of earnings/savings/benefits or sell their property to cover costs - should also reduce insurance costs for the rest of us.

That would apply to the bigger crims and they already do seize their assets to sell off. The smaller ones, with no assets, maybe thieving just to stay alive and fund their habit, will own nothing and have no earnings.
