You must agree though, there are still thousands of crimes being committed in a 'safe' country like nz, considering the low population its still crap |

I hear all the time from people returning from overseas how much worse the crime was, we're really fortunate that we have low crimes rates and our murder rate is very low compared to the USA, but admittedly higher than many of the European countries who have a more "liberal" approach to crime. But my door isn't locked and it is unlikely some gang is going to come over tonight and break in. If they do it will be lead story on national news and we'll have days of postings about crime and rantings from the SST. If it happened overseas in some countries, it would be pretty much what happened every night and hardly newsworthy. |

| 842975 | 2009-12-26 09:46:00 | I agree that the parents should be tried right alongside the kids. As it is NZ has massive resources aimed at young persons and the crimes they commit, all of which are a series of trying to deal with them before they get classified as adults and are given adult penalties. When they reach this age they get a clean slate, then as they continue offending they are once again bombarded with methods to get them to behave without locking them up. Then then have to either continually break lots of small laws or a great big fat one in order to get locked up, and still people complain that society is in the wrong. Yeah, because we pay for everything, Own stuff they can steal, and supply grand parents for them to rob, beat ,rape and kill. **** em, A bullet in the head and a watery grave is what they deserve. |

It is happening, nightly, It just doesn't make the news unless they get the wrong house. |

| 842979 | 2009-12-26 18:39:00 | Probably lives in a well to do area of Wellington and is isolated from crime. Prosecutors would live in a walled house with an electric gate and intercom. | prefect (6291) | ||

Bit of a porky.:lol: Not at all - I lived in Wanganui at the time as well so I can't recall a single case of home invasion, there were of course burglaries, I think our office got burgled three times. Most crime was in the part of town where the criminals lived, and was perpetuated on other criminals. |

And then claim all is well in the world. It is all on par with not liking euthanasia,we can't accept there is a time to go and includes removing these thugs and low life's. |
