Completely review the judicial system and those employed within it.

Set minimum sentence I.e  First offence = 3 years jail non parole.
2nd = six, 3rd = life.

It will stop very quickly.


Crap.  Mandatory sentencing has never worked. 




Correct.

In many cases it's counter productive.

But it's not instant - what do YOU recommend for the recalcitrants??

A stint in Gondwanamo Bay ..... ah, yes... glorious tropical beaches .... beautiful sunsets... sandy reaches drinking rum every night ... and then he woke up.... surrounded by crocodiles and hostile natives from Gazarassic Park in the middle of a mangrove swamp in pitch darkness surrounded by weird rustlings and other sounds of sloshing and movement of strange things ... OMG ....  fervently he thought:-  "O, God - I promise I'll never escape again if you just get me out of this one!!"

I don't have a quick fix solution.  I wish I did.

I just know for a fact that mandatory sentencing and capital/corporate punishment doesn't work.

Isolation on Teufel's Island and free to roam at will there?  Mental asylum ... indefinite non-sentence? 

Gondwanamo sounds OK... just find the right spot....you don't like the shoulder of Cape York?

John Smith, you are engaging in a whole lot more......B.S. talking, imo.

It not a new concept and it's being tried many times.

That argument [without any supporting substantive evidence] is pure B.S. talking.

What you are claiming,   ....is an offense against logical thinking and open reasoning.

You claim that.....  'data shows'   that if you accomplish 1/, then 2/ will occur........

1/ Removing criminals from a society [by imprisonment],
2/ will   NOT    result in a reduction in the crime rates, in that society.

I call total, illogical, B.S.


And please, don't present me with a link to a 57 page LEFTIST academic 'study'....'proving' that the removal of criminals from a society, is the cause of more crime, in a society.


Dear John Smith.....

This is a debating forum.......if you wish to convince me,
then please present your own LOGICAL argument,
as to why YOU BELIEVE, that removing criminals from a society, WILL NOT 'ever reduce crime'.

Present me with an LOGICAL argument [not a 'study'] to support that particular assertion.

None so stupid as those that keep doing the same thing over and over,  no matter how many times it fails


Can you think of a solution?




You'll never stop violent crime.  At best all you can do is try to minimise it. The authorities need the public to cooperate and work with them.  Mandatory sentencing creates an us v them society and is a barrier to cooperation



"At best all you can do is try to minimise it"

No one seems to be even trying to minimise violent crime .... Bail doesn't work too well, and neither does soft sentencing, and monitoring is the joke of the century

We also see court prosecutors colluding with judges to minimise sentences when judges alone should make the decision

On occasions, all three, the defense council, the prosecutor, and the judge get their heads together to arrive at a sentence, very often a soft sentence

Is that the "co-operation" you're talking about?

I agree.
If jailing was effective, we would have fewer problems, fewer criminals, and fewer jails.
We have more, so our system of jailing is proven to fail. Proven for many generations.

You can reject whatever you like, you're still an idiot. Only an idiot would call for mandatory detention despite all previous attempts showing it didn't work.

The lower socio-economic section of our society are more likely to commit violent crimes.
Due to bad peer pressures, financial pressures, lack of life opportunities, lack of a possible viable future life, lack of housing, lack of emotional intelligence, lack of education, lack of good male role figures, excess alcohol or drug taking, that area being targeted more than a higher socio economic area by police.

Once in court, poor people cannot afford good lawyers or present themselves well. So they get a heavier sentence.
Rich people hire the good lawyers, have been to nice schools, present themselves well and get a lighter punishment.

Being poor is really bad.  I've been poor and have known poor people. 
It's a total life hardship with no parole.  It never releases it's grip.

You're not wrong about that, but it's all got out of hand

These days, a crim on bail can result in a murder occurring ... and not just one crim, but dozens committing serious crimes, dozens more crimes than need to happen

We'll see what the State Govts come up with to improve the bail system, they're working on it now

Same with early release (parole) from jail. Early release often means not enough time in isolation for crims to learn their lesson. Completely learning their lesson is what it should be all about. If there is even the slightest doubt about not learning their lesson, then they need to stay in jail

Set up a standing commission.

Make a statement by putting a man at the helm for a change to show that there is indeed no 'war on men' but is instead trust in most men and the desire to pursue criminals and not all others with a seine net and shotgun.

Look at the demographics over-represented in violence etc and start working out why - and it ain't simple 'disadvantage' - NOBODY comes from a less advantaged background than me - and yet here I am - a gentle man and top gun at everything I've ever done.

Start looking AGAIN at the NEED to remove vulnerable children at risk from bad and violent 'family' situations.... and stop being blackmailed by 'activists' throwing BS around and telling lies.  Nobody has yet told me WHY so many Abestinian babies are removed at birth from their 'mothers' in SA- as in WTF?  You seriously going to tell me that the reasons are not loud and clear?  I have a perpetual drug addict niece who's had seven kids - all removed from her.... (note my kids are cousins to Chris Nolan and both have majestic careers - as does the sister of that niece who went to live with her father's sister at a young age and is now a lawyer - it sure ain't my line!).

Consider a Two State Solution as demanded by these same Abestinians - they say they want it - but they don't want it separated from Macca's etc ... they want it to be a parallel universe within Australian culture and society, fully supported by that with massive handouts and gifting of hoards of money annually for doing nothing.  I say give 'em their separate state - fully separate - and let them make of it what they can in their sacred old ways.  Offer them the option of assimilating into Austrael or going to Abestine to live 'their way - but there are no half-way points and no special treatments - they MIGHT be given a plot of land to build on and call their own - that's better than anyone else gets - but they do NOT own the land entire.  Feeding them this BS about sovereignty and ownership ramps up the fires of violence and anger inside their communities and hence with everyone else.

Lessee - funny how when discussing violence and woman killing and man killing and such - certain 'groups' predominate.... take over the discussion everywhere but in these majestic ivory towers where they sit down at huge pay to 'discuss' these things ... so let's look at the real figures of who is killing who... and that includes women killing men 40:60 and women killing women at some undefined rate and women killing kids at a higher rate.

Anyway - no final solution will ever be found to violence until such time as the full gamut of issues is addressed fully and openly and without using the blood-spattered echo chamber over and over again.

I told you all years ago that the current approach was fatally flawed and would - and was - resulting in more and more casualties on all sides.... I can lead a donkey to water... I can lead a uni graduate to fact ..... can't make 'em drink it against the madness of The Madness - though one day they'll eat it alongside all those they've let down by not finding solutions.

Now then - who wants to co-author with me
The War On Woke - A testament of truth..
.???  I'm struggling to find the energy and focus at the moment...

The replacement for mandatory sentences has been the introduction of negotiated soft sentences ... they don't work either

Pity is shown towards the crims, when pity is not warranted for crims

Yes, I remember the muslim father near Wollongong who willfully stabbed his daughters non-believing boyfriend to death.

The father got only three years in jail

In his summing up, the judge said: "The public won't understand this sentence"

It was obvious the judge took into consideration the Islamic culture of honour killing, and took pity on him

So there is one flaw that needs eliminating, the flaw of insulting the rule of Australian law ... it should never be "Islamic" law
