Closed petition Justice for Victims - Life means life, 10 years means 10 years

Closed on

Support the victims not the offenders. Life should mean life in prison, 10 years should mean 10 years!
The GOVERMENT as a whole need to have a fresh look at the entire justice system and stop making excuses such as prison over crowding. Build these super prisons!
Yes it will cost to build and house these offenders but crime will fall massively, eventually passing on a saving to the tax payer. Victims will again have faith in the justice system.

Do these offender who break into your house, steal your car or assault you, need a TV in their cell?
Should they be allowed out into the public domain as long as they return in the evening? What sort of punishment is that!
I call for the government to revamp the justice system taking into account the VICTIM’S views
Less offenders on the street = less crime, it's simple?
Let's debate weather prison should continue to be a holiday camp or place that is feared by offenders.
