The Youth of Today

Now i'm no leading expert in psychology, but I did have to scoff at a recent newspaper article suggesting that a smoke free prison reduces crime. Apparently would be criminals will change their minds on committing crime if they think theyll have to go to a prison where they can not smoke at all.. BULL PLOP

But this did get me thinking... There is a large problem with the youth of today committing crimes. And lets face it, if your a criminal at that age, you are likely to be a criminal for the rest of your life.. Only the rare few actaully make a change for the better.

So how do we discourage youth's from committing crimes?

Simple, lock all under 18's up with all convicted child molesters and pedophiles. I bet you any money that a lot of kids will fear committing a crime if the outcome is being stuck in a building with a load of nonces.. Itd certainly be a far more effective fear technique than non-smoking.

And before those of the human rights blah blah brigade start getting in a strop, just remember that Criminals refuse to acknowledge the rights of others, so why should we give them any rights at all.
