yes i did, i find some of it a bit ott to be honest, but the majority of offenders are totally out of control, and i dont think you can compare american prisons to ours, the mentaly disturbed are treated different here than out there.

I believe in human rights but its where on the scale people clock in. I also do not make judgement on people who have got it wrong. I take as I find.

With few exceptions I also believe a spent sentence is a spent sentence and its a fresh start.

Up to them after that

No, youve got the armed forces full of volunteers.

National service would only fill them up with people who didnt want ot be nor would they want them there.

Because of the lack of conscripts amongst other factors we have the best armed forces in the world

despite the politicians best eforts i think we are very lucky over here our armed forces are best in world,we get ill we dont have to have medical ins and if some little scroat breaks into your house u know u will be the one arrested for sitting on him till police arrive lol!

I agree, serving your country shouldn't feel like punishment, or done with resentment. If you don't want to do it you've no place being there. But maybe 2 years service for willing volunteers, or gap years for students in non combat roles could be encouraged as an alternative to the meaningless college and uni courses that are being forced on people?

I agree with the 2 yr bit. There was a debate a few years back which basically concluded that Nat Service wasnt a good scheme but a 2 year stint which left you , when/if you came out of the services, with the same rights as youd have had 2 years previously re eduction etc would work. A lot of people who would join the forces didnt know if it was for them and didnt want to sign up on the 6 & 12yr schemes and would lose certain age related rights by losing a couple of years.

Not surprisingly as it was quite a sensible proposition nothing came of it

The alternative is the Israeli model where theyre generally fanatically defensive and patriotic and see the 2 years as a matter of pride and just about everyone does it.

and i suppose another problem with compulsory service is, a load of nutters who are now trained in self defence, handling fire arms, etc. etc. Who would basically be even more quilified to wreak havoc. Thats if they didnt cause so much trouble in the two years that they either got kicked out, or the military courts system became as overloaded as the civil one.

saw a documentary on the colchester glasshouse a few years back, it looked pretty easy in military terms.

My mate and I talking the next day genuinely reckoned we had it harder in basic training

A lad i knew got sent down for sleeping in (long story) but when he got back from pokey he said he'd enjoyed it.

rapists, peado's and the like should be castrated without any anesthetic before being hung
