Re: living breathing proof that our justice system doesnt work.
I can't make up my mind about The Howard League of Penal Reform.
Are they making valid points and arguments or are they a bunch of il-informed do-gooders?
They say that community sentences are more effective than a penal sentences but if an individual chooses to keep breaking the law, what action would change their attitude. The shop lifter mentioned above is not deterred by the present legal system.
Chopping bits off them is not an answer as they would then need looking after. (the people, not the bits)
There seems to be a attitude in today's society that everyone is entitled to a decent living, even if that means taking it off someone else.
