I also think the idea of having rural camps where youth criminals can go to get away from their communities, serve their sentence and get training in agriculture or a trade is an excellent idea.

Well I just got a letter from Amnesty International saying that no child under the age of 14 should ever be sentenced to prison under any circumstances. I would love to see the inner-city wankers who come up with this bullshit see how much they would hold onto their bullshit if they themselves were victims of 13 year-olds breaking and entering and robbery, but that would never happen. It's not like these inner-city wankers have a fraction of an iota of experience of living in the real world. And, unfortunately, (as evidenced by the amount of votes the Greens receive, as well as Amnesty International not gotten laughed into oblivion over this proposal) these people have undue influenceHermes Express 123 wrote:Well, Mornington Island and Fortitude Valley (one rural, one city) have both had a lot of luck with Night Patrols, primarily by chaplains and similar workers, to deter crime.

So prison labour for minors?

King, you send those kids to prison, you better be prepared to keep sending them to prison for the rest of their lives. There is no better way to create a recidivist population than by sending to prison at a young age.
What happens is that half (at least half) of these kids have some sort of disability - language delay, ADHD, autism etc.
Now, you may say, “Well I’m autistic, and I didn’t do any youth crime back in my day, stop making excuses”, at which point my only response would be “good for you”.
If you send them to prison, not only are you pissing away money keeping them in prison until they do suicide by cop or some shit, you’re not addressing the root issues.

I've been the victim of multiple felonies and I have never once in my life turned to the system. You are wrong to assume everybody is a hypocrite. And even if I and everyone else were inclined to call the cops, that wouldn't automatically mean the victims' desire to see those kids imprisoned. If a kid robs me I just want my stuff back and I want that kid to get their shit together.

If by prison labour for minors, you mean sending them to rural areas (away from the communities where they committed the crimes, and where the gangs, unsavoury friends, etc they associate with live) so they can make up for what they did while learning useful agricultural and trade skills at the same time, then yes.

That's not a bad idea. Maybe we could go that for adults too...

The solutions are always the same though: more police! more prisions! more restrictions! more punishment! Because that's never been tried and found lacking, right?
God forbid one day people realise how the cocktail of infrastructural, educational and social neglect, atomization of communities and heavy handed state intrusion are the main drivers of youth crime.
Then we'd have to rethink our schools, our "free" market, our social and security policies and more broadly the distribution of political and economic power in our society, and we can't have that, now can we?
Better treat them all as terrorists-to-be and be happy when we create self fulfilling prophecies in Human form.
