Why aren't we tough on crime?

If I had the power, criminals would be properly punished and I would end this liberal nonsense that they some how have some sort of rights.
Any crime - 5 year minimum sentence and a £5000 fine.
Foreign criminals, even for petty crime would be deported upon conviction.
Burglars will sacrifice their rights upon breaking into the poor victims house, meaning the burglar scum can't sue the owner of the property if they get injured or even better bit by a dog.
Their face will pinned up on local notice boards so people know who they are and where they live.
There's much more but that would take too long to write.
Don't like it? Don't break he law in the first place - it's their choice to break the law. Simple.
In my ideal world, they'd all be executed and all prisons would be converted into affordable housing communities to help with the housing crisis.

Agreed. Years of a cross-political party consensus on "rehabilitative" justice has led to a total watering down of our justice system.

Rehabilitation has been shown to be far more effective at reducing crime than imprisonment.

The OP has some good ideas.
We have enough CCTV and speed cameras that we have the technology to observe people and find out when they are committing crimes especially when the snoopers charter goes through and we can monitor communications.
To tackle the state inefficiency we could bring the private sector in to it: offer private companies the opportunity to compete for contracts in identifying crimes being committed and put them on commission so they get a certain percentage of the £5000 fine (to use the OPs example). The more crimes they discover the more profitable they are. We could also allow them the right to place innovative crime discovery systems in public or (in some cases) private places to encourage innovation in the development of crime monitoring technology.
Of course the do gooder liberals will say "muh civil rights". Don't commit crimes then. Abide by the laws of the State and the State will protect you from harm from others.

PS. Your lust for executions and vigilante justice is pretty disturbing.

I've always thought the death penalty for repeat offenders (like a three strike rule or something) was a good idea, that way the ones who can be reformed are and the one's who can't be are removed.
I've also always found it amusing that modern Britain views a human life as only being worth about ten years or so, it's quite telling.

Locking people up does not work either look how full the prisons of the world are yet still people commit crime. Its very expensive both in resources / manpower /fiscally, for a country to keep people locked up 24 hours a day.
Privatisation of prisons I HEAR YOU SAY ? that's going remarkably well in the US of Ay is it not ? With more people per head of capita in prison than anywhere else on the planet and prison lobbyists arguing for tougher and tougher laws . is it ethical to make money from incarceration?

Someone who breaks into a car and steals is a criminal. Someone who accidentally drives 30cm into a bus lane is not a criminal although he is fined.
What is irritating is that the state seems to be going sort in real criminals and yet want to get tough in nonsense criminals like driving In bus lane, wrong turn, various categories of liberal speech crimes like using non-PC words etc.

I think we need to be a lot harsher on drug use and stop with the stupid rehabilitiation stuff and giving them probation and letting them off lightly.
Also In my opinion if someone breaks into your house that you should be allowed to use force in my opinion if they threatened me I would shoot them to disable them. We need tougher penalties and to clean the country of the degenerates that use illicit drugs

I have found that those keen on so called rehabilitation tend to be found amongst sections of society least likely to be victims of crime.

Also even if it doesn't deter crime I believe from a moral standpoint certain people should be put to death, child killers, serial killers etc.

Good countries like the United Arab Emirates have low levels of poverty and draconian laws and they enjoy extremely low rates of crime.

It's not virtue signalling so much as it's solipsism. Upper middle class people are generally kinder and more intelligent than the poor and many of them have sadly deluded themselves into the ridiculous belief that poor people are like them and would act like them if they had the same opportunities and social capital they have, this is not true.

Nope, you need to go back to the drawing board with that one.
Many rich people are unkind and unintelligent.
How wealthy are you for example?

As far as I'm aware no state in the world has a system where people who commit burglary, assault etc three times are executed.
Also even if it doesn't deter crime I believe from a moral standpoint certain people should be put to death, child killers, serial killers etc.

I completely agree. Surprisingly (excepting the child rapists and terrorists) I have a much greater respect for Islamic culture now. Their harsh punishments and haram laws definitely have the potential to keep society clean and high functioning.
