For me, rapists can be reformed - loads of factors into risk factors for that crime. Same with murders that were not necessarily premeditated.

Child murderers, serial killers, pedophiles though, nah I don't think there's a chance of it. Sentencing is ridiculously lenient.

I'm not as hardline as you are on this but I agree the scales have tipped too far the other way as they currently stand and sentences for certain things need to be much more severe. Not because they'd be a deterrent, but because the people who commit them will probably do it again when out. If you look at the people given whole life tariffs, for example, a lot of them are people who committed a murder and were released.

Will probably do it again when out? That’s not borne out by statistics though

The threshold should be extremely high when considering the risk of letting out certain groups of people who commit very serious crimes. Even if the stats say 5% of serial killers again reoffend, that's still 5 in every 100 released killing again.

It's not like a shoplifter reoffending.
 
He`s just been on the morning telly, with his mate who helped too.

They both deserve to be properly recognised for this with an award for their bravery and selflessness.

The easy option would`ve been to say " he`s right wing scum, leave him to his fate "

It`s possibly the most uplifting thing that`s come out of all this, since it started.
To be honest there is an assumption that he is right wing scum.
He could of just been going about his normal business when he was picked up and carted off over some fellas shoulder.
I mean he is no scruffier than Dominic Cummings
 
Death by hanging for anyone caught shopping toady and a paupers burial in a communal lime pit ?

Communal lime? These filth should get anything from the state; my grandad had to use the chalk his teachers beat him with and he was at Normandy and the Somme, and then only ever wore Union Jack clothes and only ever used the word BRITISH in all caps when speaking to someone. Send them back, not racist, lime for the Limeys.

... is probably what we will see next
 
We have had the police were great against the miners,send the army in,I'm white but not privelged,lock em up and throw away the key,its like communist Russia
Is this the thread where @Zatara claimed he was discriminated against on a daily basis and that black guys are treated like celebs in Asian nightclubs? Sure there’s been some pyramid pulling chat in here as well.
incredible

Yeah. Along with the image of the girl on the first weekend of protests trying to stop people throwing missiles at the police
 
Well done that man, the world needs more people like him in it.

Also shows a picture can be interpreted totally different from what actually happened, as when I first saw it the other day I thought he was taking him to give him a good hiding.

The most profound picture I’ve seen in years. I bet he’s some Lad to know in real life.
There is hope
