I've said it before and I'll say it again, any crime where a fire arm is used is automatic life in prison with no chance for parole for 25 years. Rape or molest a kid, its corporal punishment and involuntary castration. Sell drugs to a minor, its a 5 year jail term.

All that we're doing with this soft on criminals approach is encouraging them to commit more crime with a smirk on their faces, especially the ones that are involved in criminal gangs who make jail time a status symbol.

Sure spend money trying to get these kids away from the gang, educate people better, but the minute that they cross the line then you stomp the boot down on them.

Hugs make thugs it seems.
I'd tentatively agree with most of this. It seems that the only way to get the message across is through the liberal application of force and the justice system.

The only problem is that this approach has a tendency to promote escalation which those on the other side of the law have no problem with, but on the right side of the law it requires increased legislation and funding to match so that the officers on the street arent over their heads.

Angry mob justice is always an alternative.
