Unfortunately here as in Britain there is no easy solution. No remission (parole) is a start adn just for the PITA's who carry a weapon anyway tack additional time on say five or ten years. Meanwhile start working on how to improve the lot of those in need and provide some social stability and jobs so they're not turning to crime because theyre are no options. Lastly treat everyone the same.If an O.J. or a Britney etc committs a crime that would get the ordinary joe put in jail for ten years, slam them in a cell for ten years. Just my thoughts. Neil
