The British Justice system never fails to amaze me.

These people should be deported, they are a danger to society!

I'm sick of theft, vandalism, GBH and attempted murder being classed as "anti-social behavior". They are already crimes and should carry the appropriate punishment.

Vandalism: 1 Year
Theft: 10 Years
Carrying a Gun / Knife: 15 Years
GBH: 20 Years
Attempted Murder: 30 Years
Murder / Paedophilia / Rape: 20 Years (To give adequate time to ensure they really are guilty) then death by lethal injection.

Justice.

Gentlemen, Can I request that if you want to argue for political report and on wider issues such as these there are more suitable forums?  Perhaps something that would relate more to the home office than to the Department for Transport?

Thanks!

Great to see the BBC» (British Broadcasting Corporation - home page)'s lead item on their Bristol news website this evening. Maybe their reporters should get an award for the oldest lead story. And even then they get it wrong!
