Rejected petition Tough sanctions for young offenders

More details

The law makers should think radically on how they can bring new tough sanctions against young offenders so that the law abiding citizens may feel safe on streets, because clearly a repeated advice from politicians to parents on taking responsibility for children is not working and we have witnessed the consequences of this in London riots.

The leniency of the current system is not going to make the youth law abiding citizens therefore a reform is due for safer future.
