Police declare war on street yobs
Damon Wilkinson21/ 3/2008
POLICE declared war on the yobs on Wednesday during a major crackdown on anti-social behaviour and criminal damage in Falinge, Wardleworth and Kirkholt.
Twenty seven were arrested and more than 50 cars were seized, along with quantities of amphetamines and cannabis.
The other side to the good work by police is that this is of little value unless the courts impose deterrent sentences. A simple rule
which could be understood
from an early age would be the three offences and you're locked up approach.
Contrary to often reported views, prison is in fact remarkably cheap and good value for money when balanced against the misery and cost to the public and police of constantly apprehending criminals only to have them given community sentences where only a proportion of their continuing offences are likely to be detected.
Numerous cautions and counselling give the green light to bad behaviour.
