Whatever happened to “3 Strikes And You’re Out”?
Conscript the shoplifters and send them to Ukraine.
How has he "paid his dues"? Has he reimbursed everyone he stole from?
Christians don’t lie and steal.
Prison can be a solution, unreasonable/early release is not a solution.
I’ve met plenty who do.
That works.
The Saudi method of removing a hand would also work.
They'd run out of hands on the second conviction...
You can’t shoplift in jail. Or rape or kill somebody.
Nobody rehabilitates that doesn’t want to habilitate. He’s right, jail is not working, we should start cutting off fingers and hands. It doesn’t have to be the Arab way, where they just slice off your hand, we can do it medically, but when they start losing body parts, they will stop stealing.
Yay. Sharia! That’s the ticket.
He is now off drugs and isn’t shoplifting anymore
Why not amputation? Given that we’re all culturally enriched these days...
So they should get drug treatment while they are in prison.
But the point of putting people away IMO is to make everyone else safe from their crime. Four weeks of course isn’t going to work for addicts.
Cut his hand off.
Simple solution. Send him to jail, chain him to a table during feeding time, and let other prisoners grab what they want off his tray.
He’ll get a quick lesson in the costs of shoplifting.
“Cullan’s reason for doing this was simple; he was making enough money to feed his addiction to heroin.”
Well there ya go! All is forgiven, Buddy! *SMIRK*
Eventually we all pay for this behavior. Increased prices, insurance etc. Then, if it keeps getting worse we all pay by being inconvenienced since the items will no longer be available to locally run out and obtain on a whim, but will have to order and then wait for delivery.
The more morally corrupt society becomes the harder this behavior will be to contain. Just as our constitution can not work for a morally corrupt people, neither will the kinds of laws that have helped to maintain a civil society. Unhinging from the “burdens” and “constraints” of our nations past Christian teachings, while giving fools unbridled freedoms such as access to child sex, will come at a high cost.
Yeah, right. I'm sure he shoplifted only ten times.
Whatever. Keep him in there.
