Re: The Media
When you talk of the perception of crime..... I think that the perception of justice or lack of it is just as worrying. It seems that there is little in the way of deterrents to put criminals off. People are probably just as scared of apprehending a burglar in their house because the demarcation lines of what they could legally do were very fuzzy.
Maybe with recent changes that allow reasonable force will alter this.....although how does an 80 year old pensioner exert reasonable force on a young burglar?
