I ask this as, in my city, three thugs of fourteen who broke into a zoo and tortured animals are being let off scot-free by the Children's Panel (a pathetic group who should be abolished). Americans have the right idea when it comes to boot camps for yobs as surely violent pre-teens and teens have lost the right to be treated like children when they show they are capable of such vile acts. In these boot camps, not only are inmates punished but they are also given therapy so it's the best of both worlds really.
I'd be interested to know what others think about the UK's pathetic criminal justice system that surely makes us a laughing stock at times.

as an American I think that is the funniest thing in the world
they should be locked up in juvie for that and if it happened in america all of the animal rights activists would be finding way to hunt them down lol
the UK is really pathetic (using your word) when it comes to prosecuting minors...

Unless your a thug reading this 99.9999999% of the population should agree with your views. I cannot understand why our schools are not pro-active in dealing with the crimminal element before they reach an age of tragic consequences. I also would add a requirement of our schools and parents to start psychological testing & profiling to help the future of the youth at risk and the safty of us all. Childhood 3 strikes for violent children would be agreeable to most folks that actually want to do something proactive as well??? Just a few points to ponder???

A have three words. Learn them. Learn their meaning.
A Clockwork Orange
It's a book on that line. Children are simply nuts! They can't be reformed! It simply comes with age... and if it doesn't, then they need imprisonment.
But depend on the nature of the crime, I think that children should be punished to an extent. They definitely need mental evaluations. In that case you presented, a degree of punishment was definitly needed. I'm no fan of PETA, but I'm no fan of animals in pain, either.

I quite agree with you and boot camps seem a good idea but what I have read in the past few weeks even those are to soft for some of them. (3 kids hit a man with a burning plank and then put his unconscious body on the bonfire on Nov 5th.) Boot camps are too good for these morons.

i think of there already is a study on that.. some say that spanking motives violence in a while. I ought to disagree consisting of your " mom and dad must be thrown in penitentiary for fifty% of of the sentence provide to the truly criminal. as quickly as you get to a ingredient on your existence you need to end blaming mommy and daddy.. my question to you, what would you think approximately a 'appropriate upbringing"? or what would you think approximately loss of appropriate parenting."?

It's the parents fault. I think they should beat the hell out of the kids and put the parents in prison at hard labor. If that doesn't work than we go after the grandparents. Thank you.

I think that they should because they could be doing more bad things if you let them go. They might even kill you. Am I scarying you?
