I would say the same about my youth, but in my youth, you had parents, schools ect actually able to discipline children.
At 16 my mates and I did some roof rocking and ended smashing a window or two on a house. We were charged with criminal damage and slapped with a 5 year good behaviour bond. Kids now get less for stabbing someone. Thatās whatās ā ā ā ā ā ā , rehabilitation isnāt letting them get away with it, they need to be significantly punished.
Depends where you get brought up I guess.
To me Springvale and Noble Park are safer than it ever had been.
humans in general are quite bad at assessing risk
yes, crime happens. roughly 2,600 incidents of a crime against a person per 100k in victoria. scary numbers!
however narrow that down to just ānot known to the offender, involved hospitalisationā and weāre down to 400ish.
something must be done! hard agree.
now using the same measurement scale (the old per 100k), each year 100 people are hospitalised and 5 people die due to vehicle accidents. yet thereās no noise at all about the government taking action on this. we still get in our cars and drive around (or walk across roads) each day without a second thought. if anything, we want to be able to drive faster.
the noise doesnāt match the risk. legacy media uses it to bash alp governments because fear is really easy to sell. remember the youth crime wave in qld that seemed to get better after their state election?
-edit- statistically youāre about as likely to be diagnosed with cancer in the next 12 months as you are to be a victim of a crime that isnāt domestic abuse in the same time period.

Yeah I guess, the thought of if we get caught weāre ā ā ā ā ā ā was there.
We caught and got what we deserved
Youāre right, I have just realised I have never talked to people before. Should I get a good cross section in? I feel like the ones who read the Herald Sun or watch Sky are going to tell me itās a good idea finally to lock kids up for years and years rather than address inequality, poverty, lack of opportunity and the cycle of incarceration and recidivism - in not so many words. But that the horse has bolted and Jacinta is just trying to save her own job. But Iāll get out there and vox pop the ā ā ā ā out of it because itās definitely a VICTORIAN PROBLEM and itās OUT OF HAND
Again your going with this bullshit about reading the herald sun or watching Sky and donāt give us this BS about lack of opportunity. There is PLENTY of opportunities out there for young people. Each suburb has several Footy Teams, Soccer Teams, Basketball courts, Skate Parks hell im sure if you wanted to join a model train society you could.
so the punishment wasnāt a deterrent hey
punishing offenders might make us all feel good, but it doesnāt prevent people doing crimes. particularly young silly geese.
-edit- iām not at all opposed to harsher sentencing for crimes against people. iām in favour. 20 years for looking at me funny, go nuts. crime will still happen though, people need to understand that.

Also people who donāt but are just as ready to go with bullshit easy feels āsolutionsā, Iāll talk to them.
no one wants to read this factual sht simmo, we want to get angry
Time for capital punishments for violent young offenders.
Would only need a few public executions and I think the message would be understood.
Plus such a spectacle would make for peak ratings reality TV, and/or better Grand Final half time entertainment than the usual washed up American āmusiciansā.

We didnāt do it again, so the punishment did work in that sense
I keep numerous weapons planted around the house and so far only have needed to use them once in my life. I donāt care what age you are though, break in whether Iām home or not and Iāll take the law into my own hands
