It makes me sad when I read:
A 3 year old in a pram has acid thrown over them. In Worcester and in a shop in broad daylight.
Britain has the highest rate of acid attacks per capita in the World.
A female bus driver aged 57 in Wales is urinated on and given abuse by a bunch of thugs.
Have we lost all our values - clearly some have? So sad. |

We do not have enough police on the street and no real deterrants for youth,so they get away with crime of all kinds.
Also we have a poor education system that does not instill morals and discipline into children at a young age.
This problem begins when the child is young with poor parenting and poor schooling.The moral fabric of society is no longer there.
The animals that commited this crime should get life sentences and denied all human rights.There should be no payroll rights,no visitors,fed on bread and water for the rest of there miserable days.
Now the modern day do gooders will slag me off,but tell me are the modern methods of controlling these discusting events working?

The problem with denying human rights to one of us, is to deny rights to all of us.
Back to the drawing board with this delightful 'idea'. |

And so we are back to the same argument as we had vis-à-vis the death penalty. Which of course leads on to the next question. When eventually a section of a society gets so disillusioned with the inability of the state to keep order because do gooders refuse to allow the state to impose punishments that deter crime and we start seeing summary police and mob justice being handed out as law and order break down will you still sit on your hands and refuse to allow the state to keep order? |

The premise here is "We should brutalise criminals, because if we don't, citizens will take it upon themselves to brutalise criminals".
Of course, the problem with this idea is that no matter how harsh the penalty applied, there's always
A) Going to be crime, because punishment as a deterrent doesn't really work.
B) as a follow on from A, there will always be people who labour under the idea that the reason there is crime is that the punishments are not sufficiently brutal, and as such will argue for even more severe punishments.
So, the real question is, what possible motive do we have to listen to people like yourself who argue for the removal of human rights from prisoners? You'll never be happy and are blind to the shortcomings of your revenge fantasies as justice. |

I figured nietzsche put it better than I ever could.
But thus I counsel you, my friends: Mistrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful. They are people of a low sort and stock; the hangmen and the bloodhound look out of their faces. Mistrust all who talk much of their justice! Verily, their souls lack more than honey. And when they call themselves the good and the just, do not forget that they would be pharisees, if only they had—power.

The UK has had marked deterioration in standards of respect between people since the 1980s. These shocking incidents are likely a reflection of this trend.
Some people voted for reductions to local budgets for police etc, so detection and presence will probably deteriorate. Likewise the UK education system has changed, with thousands of schools taken out of local government scrutiny and management as 'academies' run by businesses were given the assets and have resulted in many falling school educational standards (though some people have made very nice sums of money from it). I think this is where we can better judge them by their deeds, not words - the lives of millions are not viewed as important or valued. This same attitude breeds like a filthy virus.

"So what pc bullshit would u do then can’t wait for this give them a love bite lol"
We have these things, called courts, in which people are given these other things, called trials, to determine things like guilt, culpability, and so on.
And if found guilty, they can be sent to these other places, that we call prisons, where they're held until their sentence has been carried out.
That seems better than "hey, we find these acts to be especially repugnant, and to show you how unacceptable we find this, we're gonna do the exact same thing to you". |

And yet people keep on voting for parties that cut police numbers (fallen by 21,000 since 2010), that waste money on grammar schools, that cut surestart centres which help the poorest parents to be better parents. You're right, this isn't working. |

Yes, blame the teachers why dont you. The little shits are well on the way to being utter scumbags well before they hit school age. Thereafter, schools have kids for 195 days a year (if they show up) for about 6 hours a day. That's 1,170 hours a year (a year is 8760 hours btw)so that's less than 15% of the time......Id say parents have the responsibility to imbue their offsprong with values, behaviours and attitudes. |

If you feel that was a genuine threat, then do your duty as an Englishman and report me to the authorities.
Otherwise, might I suggest going back and rereading the post in question so as to learn the difference between a threat and the simple laying out of the path between cause and effect. |

Does reversing the child's injuries require more or less of a beating to be given out than raising someone from the dead?
Enquiring minds want to know what your mastabatory stories will achieve.
Also, shouldn't your revenge fantasy at least be proportional? The phrase is "an eye for an eye" after all, not "a life for an eye" |

I think for attacking a child like that and with evidence stacked against you, you should be killed. There has to be 100% certainty when imposing a death sentence though so it's never going to be reinstated. There's room for error and the error is too great. |

He also followed Thelema does that mean that its central tenant of "Do as tho wilt shall be the whole of the law" should apply?

Ya in my opinion when the evidence is stacked against you like that then death is the sentence. There's no excuse for attacking a baby. |

Was there less crime when people were hanged or transported for stealing food to eat?
Does anybody happen to know?
Was there more or less child abuse in the 30s or the 50s?
Everyone imagines a mystical past when things were better.
It doesn't exist.
The same crimes happened but they were not as widely reported. |

If you've got someone bang to rights for a hideous crime, and I don't mean most probably it was them but irrifutable evidence that they committed it then if they were disposed of for good they would never be able to do it again.
It may or may not reduce the amount of other sick fucks doing similar in future but one thing's for sure, the one you put down will not be able to do it again.
Too many innocent victims have been murdered, adused etc by previously convicted scum that have "served their punishment" and been let out to continue where they were previously inconveniently interrupted and caught.

Put them in prison. No special protections, no solitary, just in with the rest of them. They knew they would definitely be going to prison if they got caught. What happens to them when inside is in their own heads. You cant get access to acid in prison, so they will just have to defend themselves as best they can. What a shame. Poor dears. |

No, because in the past when you've demanded that you be treated as if you're arguing in good faith, you've immediately shit the bed and declared things like "I'm not even going to read that".

That you think I am is weird, because presumably in order to have such a fine understanding of everyone in a country you'd have to have met them all first, and you'd surely have noticed that I was not one of the 36 million people you've met and judged.
The alternative is you're just making things up, but that's pretty far fetched.... |

I read an article today regarding state pension which compares 30 countries. The best pension in the World is
The Netherlands
The worst is
Great Britain
The oldies get some stick for the triple lock etc but they are not looked after that well! Considering we are the 5/6th largest economy why are we bottom of the league?
Surely we should be near the top of the league? Are out priorities/standards failing?
Found it on Facebook - so could be fake news! |

if this is the OECD report it is looking at someone entering the workplace today. Not those in retirement.
I’ve seen another one which ranks as bottom not because of the level but because we don’t have the tax structure to support it. I think the average 65yo has taken out 20% more than they have put in taxes. |

Yes it was one of the reports - what suprised me was how low we are in comparison - especially the likes of Mexico. I wouldn't have expected to be top but in the top half. I have always been aware how poor our pensions were and that you need to make your own provision - poor sods who are relying on the state scheme. |

Agreed. But it’s the 20yo that it’s hitting. Even I’m planning my pension provision around no state pension.
However going back to the study, the measure was as judging pensions as a % if prior earnings. This means state support looks *bad* if earnings are high.
You also have to ask whether the state pension is there to support the poorest through their last few years of life (as it was when it was set up) or the majority through 20%+ of their lives. |

Too many fuckwits, breeding like rabbits then teaching their offspring there is no such thing as consequence and letting them think they are the most important person on the planet and they can have anything they want, regardless. Too many young adults thinking the word no does not apply to them. Self absorbed fuckmuffins! |

"Put them in prison. No special protections, no solitary, just in with the rest of them. They knew they would definitely be going to prison if they got caught. What happens to them when inside is in their own heads. You cant get access to acid in prison, so they will just have to defend themselves as best they can. What a shame. Poor dears.
I almost admire the honesty of the people who loudly boast that they'd totally kill them themselves, as opposed to this snivelling bullshit."
Let the dregs look after themselves. rather that than put them on a cushy wing where no harm can come to them, meanwhile a bloke in for burglary risks his neck every day for looking at a pscho the wrong way. Fuck em. They knew what happens to nonces and the like when they did what they did. Whats going to happen to them? A toothbrush handle in the eye? So fucking what? Theyve lived half there life already. That lad has the rest of his life with scars on his face. Have you ever been burnt by an acid or a strong alkali? It hurts. A lot. But it was an accident wasnt it. They meant it for the mother. So thats not ad bad. |
