Tell them to shut the fuck up or you will set fire to the place.

Not the same I know but My friend works at Swindon Hospital she was telling the other day me alot of the cleaners are from Ghana - apprently the have there own "community" within Swindon - one of the cleaners was wrongly accused of stealing some pens from the hospital - it got back the the community "leader" and she was beaten and disowned by her family for being a thief!! Scary!
A friend of mine is Ghanaian and some of the stories he's told me about Accra are pretty crazy. If a thief is seen stealing some from a market stall, they will be chased by a mob of people. If they're lucky they will get away with a severe beating but it's often much worse, with people being set on fire. Petty theft is considered as bad as murder there.

The thing is, they won't do it again after the first time due to be scared. Thats what it should be like in this country.

Just make sure everyone is still alive and leave them to their arguments

How about the punishment for every crime being death? Wouldn't that be ideal? No repeat offenders. Ever.

I think we should burn anyone who hasn't committed a crime. The fucking do-gooders.

Do you know this to be true? Much of the research into serious crimes in this country suggests that tougher sentences have minimal affect on crime rates and re-offending.

In the USA in many states murderers can get executed and because of that harsh punishment no one kills anyone there... oh wait...

I think the total fucing ineffectiveness of the 3 strikes rule in the States pretty much confirms that. If the prospect of a lifetimes imprisonment for any offence isn't enough to stop someone from stealing a six pack of beer then what is..

You have to embrace this behaviour. It's cultural enrichment that is to the benefit of us all.
