    literally had tools stolen from my truck a few weeks ago, didn't even bother calling 111, went to the 105 number, they seemed a little annoyed that I didn't file a report online, but I persisted in making them do their job over the phone, all for me to be told they won't investigate it as they've got nothing to go off, I know where it happened, I know when it happened I know the serial numbers of the tools taken, none of that mattered because I didn't have either footage of it happening or knew who the suspect might be. This is the sort of service our taxes go towards.

    If you can’t prosecute them, I don’t see why you can’t electronically tag them for three months. At least that way you can track what they are doing, who they associate with etc. it makes it harder for gangs to recruit them. Then you need to ask what are the parents doing, and should they be partly liable.

    Steady on. Not so simple. I think you should have an extended conversation with a forensic psychiatrist. Many of these offenders are severely psychopathic and have no fear, or awareness of any consequences. More seriously, parents (guardians) train their children to be criminals. Psychopathy is a brain development problem that can examined by MRI and related techniques. It’s not a mental illness. Boot camps don’t address this, well at least from what we’ve been told so far. We need a new class of citizen - impaired adult. Yes, the police are way out of their depth and so are the courts.

    Well said Michael, being rewarded for crime currently ! Political Parties seem too scared to impliment being tough on crime ! The last Govt made such a hash of crime causing us all to pay via high insurance and have our stuff stolen. Many Politions portraying criminal and extremely bad behaviour sighting - "its not my fault" or "I was only young" when many many NZers dont choose to do such things ! Govts need harsher punishments and the courts and Police need to get tough and follow through. NZ crime is out of control.

    During my time working at a College of Technology in Liverpool, one of my functions was to teach a group of police traffic patrol officers. This cohort was one of the most rewarding classes I worked with. Moving forward in time a decade or so, university graduates started to secure jobs in the police force. This new bunch wanted to do more research and generally ended up working behind a desk. In truth, the "uni grads" weren't up to the job of going out and catching criminals. They lacked the basic skills and were not at all street wise or beefy enough to approach bury criminals and arrest them. When selecting the next intake of police officers, the newbies need to to tough and physically capable of doing the job.

      depends on where you live in the USA. The view that most Kiwis have of America is quite skewed. Crime may be high in inner cities, but generally there can be areas in the USA that are far safer than NZ...and nobody thinks twice about locking up real criminals. (I've seen old men in NZ locked up for cannabis which is a joke) At least you are allowed to defend yourself against a home invader unlike in NZ No different than here in NZ - there are areas worse than others. Most people try to stay out of areas they KNOW are infested with crims if you can avoid it. You can't compare a country with 350 million people to a "town" of 5 million.

    Michael laws making the usual case for longer sentencing. But people who understand the problem say that longer sentences have no deterant effect upon the decision to commit crime. Criminals are made, not born on the whole. Bad upbringing, neglect etc. How does Michaels easy solutions address the root cause? And its at the formative stage that you have to exact change for vulnerable kids.

    I believe there's too many decisions and sentences, usually from defence councils, using emotion and sentimentalism in the justice system. .And I know where this is all coming from

    This is only half of the issue - its not that long ago punishment was the norm yet the young people are the kids of those raised in and punished in that era. If you dont create pathways for people to change (breaking the mould and environment for their kids) and have opportuinities after punishment, you condemn them and thus their kids to the same life. It is on the individual to change but if we as a society wont let them when they try, we are to blame too.

    Trouble is the biggest criminals are the ones in the "Beehive". The crimes of the rank and file, pale into insignificance.

    I think we will have to give up cash and become cashless to stop the drugs. it won't stop it completely but it will crush the gangs they will be stuffed. i love freedom and cash is part of that but i would give up cash help the police get on top of the money empire of the gangs, they draw in these young kids.
