It happens to people at the wrong place - the wrong time - with bad people. It shouldn't - but it did and still does.

1267919 2012-04-03 07:59:00 Only a cynic would suggest the drop in reported crimes is due to near universal acknowledgement that reporting any crime not exceeding the loss of a limb, or a theft greater than $12,00, or involving a kitten is unlikely to see any action. Why report something "minor" unless the insurance compels you to? Nothing will happen.
The local police are far too busy servicing paper generated and required by the Wellington squad.

1267920 2012-04-03 13:44:00 Crime in the US has been dropping almost continuously for over 20 years. The peak was during a drug epidemic in the mid 80's. Compare anythng you like to New Zealand and they have a high crime rate, but then they have a high number of sensible sentencing type morons over there.

Fortunately we live in a very safe country, crime is low overall and violent crime is very low.

We have a very good Judiciary and apart from a few idiot rednecks out there, we're in pretty good shape.

I'm glad you have an opinion, I don't agree.

There is always more work to be done, and if locking them away is proving to work then lets do some more of that.

Obviously I value a persons life much higher then you do.

1267924 2012-04-03 22:28:00 Rape does not seem to be a serious crime in NZ any more. It used be the death sentence now its a slap with a wet bus ticket.
I bet if some of New Zealand clown judges got homo sexually raped their attitude would change for the raped females.
