Crime and punishment…for the lucky few.
According to some obscure statistical material (the best kind), groups of a few tens of individuals commit 20% of the crime committed in Norway’s capital Oslo.
And the police knows who they are…
So…explain again why the police don’t want to cut the crimerate by 20 percent and lock these bastards up? It’s you and your neighbor’s safety that’s on the line – just what the police is there to look after, isn’t it?
More help and cure of these crime youth are
very important to stop development of bad behavior.The healthcare in Norway have the medicine to help these people,but the willingness and the understanding is not in place.Give more money to early forced psycologicaly treatment,and we will get rid if this problem.The whole society
will save a lot of money if this action is performed
Sorry, it doesn’t work that way. Not all people can be assimilated to the society, it is impossible. There is no reason to protect the worst criminals. Well, except for freedom and human ethics…
It is important to have well developed crime prevention programs. But some people will always have too many problems to fix. Economically, it doesn’t serve any purpose to spend a lot of time and resourses on these people. It is best spent on others who have a bigger chance of success. Sometimes, it is better to give up.
We need to have a plan for the worst of the worst. There must be a consequence for any action. The worst must be detained. We can’t allow a few to roam free the the consequence is too great for too many others. But there should always be a chance to come back to the society if they so truly desire. No one should be detained indefinately without a chance to redeam themselves. And the punishment must fit the crime.
But we must understand that some people will never fit in. It is not natural for everyone to adjust to the society. We simply must draw a line somehwere betweeen chaos and order. It is a simple question about how much time and resources we spend for obtaining a goal with a certain chance of success. Should the time and resources become too costly compared to the chance of success, we should approach the problem differently. Our ultimate goal, however, should be to create a free society where as few as possible “want” and “need” to become criminals. But not at any cost.
