Following Americam solutions will no doubt result in the same issues they have in America. If it worked why is their murder rate so high?? I sat on a District Prisons Board for five years, I noted two things that seemed to make a difference to the majority of offenders. One was reaching the age of thirty and the other was finding a women who would straighten them out. Rehabilitation of one sort or another was also much better than no rehabilitation, so yes in a sense talking does work better than more prison. Length of sentence if anything worked the other way, just got inmates more pissed off and angry when they finally got out. The hard line policies promoted by so many on here will likely have exactly the opposite impact to what you think they will, more serious offending. Most of you seem to think inmates are all monsters, but majority aren't and in fact many of them could have been dealt with by more effective methods if we weren't spending all the money on container prisons and the like. Why not start with parenting skills in the first place along with discipline so we hopefully don't have to put people in a prison to begin with? What effective methods can you come up with that would help in this regard? You seem to think that finding a women (woman) will straighten them out or we just wait for the crim to be over 30 as the case may be. So we have no female prisoners in New Zealand or are all the females in prisons lesbian so a good woman would have fixed the problem before it started? For the male prisoners we fix them up to be married at age 10 to a good woman. But hang on they had Mothers did they not? Were the Mothers not good? Once upon a time the prisoners had fathers too but they seem to be often in a prison or just packed up and left and the fathers often do not know for a fact that the child they pay for was sired by them. I might add that at times the mother does not know either. When I was a teen there were very few murders or killings per year never mind per week. Must look at the actual statistics on that. Looking forward to your solution.	Sweep (90)

784279	2009-08-27 04:55:00	SWMBO and IWOH (I Who Obey Her) are applying to be incarcerated next winter as we really can't afford to heat our house properly. What are our chances... I don't think a couple of bricks through a shop window would get us more than a couple of nights. We would preferably want 3 months over the colder months and be released as spring arrives. What crime would we need to do to get this result? Ken :confused:	kenj (9738)
