Why don't we try it and see how many re-offend or even commit a crime in the first place.

About 35000 volts should do the trick

Think we should start a thread in anything goes just to list cases of judicial incompetence, shouldn't be long before we reached a 1000 post mark

Makes me wonder what qualifications you need to be a judge, obviously common sense is purely optional.

In regards to the prison thing, i think all young offenders institutes should be converted to prisons, if young people where locked up with the "big boys" it might scare the hell out of them and stop them offending again.

That's a bit harsh on judges Speedy, common sense being optional, every body knows that judges have a frontal lobotomy on taking the silks, and are not allowed to think for themselves its all written down for them in books, books that should have been rewritten years ago We are still using laws designed for the 18th century not the 21st
