Re: crime and punishment
I was watching an old episode of 'Porridge' the other day, Fletcher and Godber were discussing disparity in sentencing, Godber said it seemed car thieves were receiving longer sentences than murderers. "That's because it takes ten minutes to make a car and only two minutes to make a life", said Fletch. This series was made in the 1970s. Nothing's changed much.
