They can still get errectionsOriginally posted by oloksThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

That is and always has been the case. Dates back to the times when life was cheap, it was property and chattels that had value so crimes against them were the most harshly punished.Originally posted by Bagpuss

Let's have some sense in the law though. Money is cheap, life, or ruining someones life is not. Rob a post office (without violence) should be a lower sentence than child abuse or any sort of physical assault aginst the person.Originally posted by SpartacusThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

But the law isn't constructed historically or now in terms of the effect of the crime on an individual, but on its effect on the state, "society" if you will. In such a system the effect of robbing a post office is greater than the effect of ruining someone's life.Originally posted by Bagpuss
Not saying this is "right", but that is how law the (western) world over works. It's not about vengeance or wrong-righting at the individual level.I'm Spartacus.Comment

So you think the government at the time should have subsidised those industries which were essentially economically unviable - and if they had done so, then these people you talk of would not have turned to crime?Originally posted by SallyAnne

Crime in Britain
The cases you have highlighted are terrible, but if you look at other countries who have harsher punishments like China and singapore their crime rates are very low in comparrison. China still has the death penalty as do many other countries. The problem is for justice to be done it has to be perceived to be done not only by the individuals who are affected but by the masses aswell to discourage them from doing similar acts.
So called petty crime is on the increase especially by teenagers who know they can't be touched, and what will they get up to when they are older. I say clamp down on all criminals and make justice swift. If that means bringing back the death penalty then so be it.
I say bring back corporal punishment for young offenders like in Singapore and see if the crime rate drops then....
It cost approxiamately £200K per year to incarcerate someone no wonder we are all paying lots of taxes.Comment

It has always puzzled me how moving an office, with its employees, is called "creating jobs".Originally posted by interestedComment
