Why are the judges so lenient?

He that will steal an egg will steal an ox.

I don't understand this. A rapist can serve 2-3 years in prison. A drunk driver that kills people will be unlucky if he serves any time at all. Violent criminals aren't even getting a decade anymore. The prison system is a joke, it's a slap on the wrist and career criminals are taking advantages of it.
I'm all for the death penalty. The cost of commiting a crime is much higher when getting caught means dying.

Do it Saudi arabia style: rapists get their penis cut and you'll see how much rape will decline.
Start jailing drug users: no demand, no supply.

Stop being so lenient.

Murder- death
Rape- death
Assault- 20 years
Armed robbery- 20 years
Drug trafficing/distribution- death
Drug posession- 10 years
sodomy- 5 years
Theft- 15 years
petty theft- 5 years

And stop wasting public money and time by having a divorce take 2 years to resolve in court. It should be dealt with in a matter of weeks, 2-3 months at best.
It's a joke that it takes 2 minutes to sign a paper and get married but that long to get divorced.

I'm not even going to entertain this ridiculous notion with a thought out response because it is so dumb.




If we stopped this war on drugs and started treating addicts like the people with an illness that they are the situation would improve tremendously.

They shouldn't. In fact, the guy was actually released after a year and three months for killing a serving UK soldier.

Just noticed that he wants to jail all drug users as well.

That'll be 90%+ of the current teenage/ young adults in jail then. Not to mention the sodomy bit. Most of the countries population would be in jail like this.

So why do you say anything over 8 years would be wrong? Surely your dads cousin's life was worth more than 8 years?

In the beginning yes but once people realise that a joint is 5 years they'll stop smoking marijuana and start being productive.

While we're at it lets ban all leisure time cause you know you clearly aren't being 'productive'.

Oh yerh and the prohibition of drugs have really stopped all drug crime so far hasn't it.

Or you could just throw them in a prison system without drugs in it.
The best way to treat an addict is to stop him from using whatever he is addicted to, it'll be painful for him but who cares.

Obviously not you. I feel pretty bad for you that you seem to have gotten this far in life with no compassion for anyone else. Hopefully one day you'll change!

The pot smell is strong in you.

Cute, modern day hippies defending their drug use.

I know many professionals who use drugs with no great harm to their work. Some of them are more successful than you will ever be.

Please use some other sources than "Catholic Weekly" or whatever BS you came us with last time to refute this.

So why do you say anything over 8 years would be wrong? Surely your dads cousin's life was worth more than 8 years?

8 years =/= 2 and a half years.

yes and I'm saying why did you say 8 years would be enough?
