Thread: God Help us in Australia! |
Our government is considering this change?
."YOUNG offenders arrested for robbery in company, indecent assault or breaching AVOs would be spared jail and escape with cautions under juvenile law reform proposals.
Attorney-General Greg Smith is to consider a number of submissions about extending the reach of the Young Offenders Act (YOA), which allows offenders to be cautioned or be dealt with through youth conferencing.
The Juvenile Justice Department is being backed by the Greens, who are calling for even greater changes, including all offences that go before the Children's Court - even armed robbery and other violent crimes - coming under the YOA.
The Greens also want assault occasioning actual bodily harm and drug matters dealt with by the YOA. Greens MP David Shoebridge said yesterday incarceration should be a "last option"."

Sorry Haz, it appears that God, in his infinite wisdom, has left Australia to its citizens and rightly so.
In other words, God helps those that helps themselves.
Good luck and stay safe.
Hej Haz!
There is a saying that "if you do not teach your children self discipline, the government will" Well, in this case, by the time these young offenders are adults, there will be no disciple...it will be all jail time.
Personally, I like the Singapore idea...caneing would get their attention quickly.
From what I saw of caning in Saudi Arabia, that's pretty brutal. However, I have absolutely no problems with a barber's razor strop. When wielded by a sufficiently fit individual and applied across a naked rear end, it will get the recipient's attention.
