Message: [QUOTE="Jason Simmons, post: 3690804, member: 8275"] Then don’t go claiming you’re being “tough on crime” because it isn‘t “tough” to suspend a sentence or not even give one. My personal favourite is being sentence to the “ rising of the court”. Where the punishment is that the crook literally has to stay in court, unless the judge / magistrate leaves… 🤷‍♂️ As a society we have chosen to limit ourselves to one main deterrent these days and it is jail. And have forgotten that it isn’t a deterrent when your SRO’s never go there or never for long… There are always sentencing mitigating circumstances, which is why I am personally a fan of the three strikes and you’re out policy. Give them the chance, give them the education opportunities and ll the rehabilitation the “experts” can make believe works. And when all that fails for the third time, in goes the mandatory sentencing provisions. [/QUOTE]
