Petition Action

Make prison sentences longer and more crimes to have a life sentence

Petition Details

Prisons should be tougher to start with, why should they get sky and pool tables! There is evidence that some people are actually better off in prison, so commit petty crimes.
If prisons were tougher with longer sentences it would be more of a deterrent.

Additional Information

If people still commited the crimes, they would be in prison where they belong. They know right from wrong so it's no excuse. If they can't live peacefully in society, then keep them locked up. Obviously murder should be a life sentence, but why shouldn't it be life for someone who mugs someone, GBH etc. They are still a menace to society and know it's wrong, so why should they be given a chance to live again when their actions has destroyed someone else's life.
