iansheff Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 It is no wonder that we have so many people like her, what an exemplary role model she is to her children. How is this going to have affected her daughter, will she think it is ok to abuse people because they are not the same colour as her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenRivers Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Children should never be taken into account when it comes to sentencing, imo. I do not see why kids should be used as a Get Out of Jail Free Card. It's also discriminatory to those who commit similar crimes but are jailed because they don't have the convenience of children, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnvqsos Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Still waiting for response... instead, you come out with comments like this I have been persuaded that your position like mine is fixed and I can devote no more time to the discussion.In addition I have been down the market to run a few errands_Saturdays offer a rare chance to escape.

There is nothing wrong with discrimination,as judges must decide each case on its given circumstances.Thats why judges run the show not a lay person blind to the wider implications of sentencing.

Of course they should, otherwise you are guilty of punishing innocent children for crimes they had no part in. Of course, there's an inevitability about this for more serious crimes, but to suggest that they should never be taken into account is vindictive, cruel and hateful to children.

'Not taking into account' is hardly 'vindictive, cruel and hateful'. Unless you just like exaggerating what other people have said and being a little drama queen, of course.

It doesn't punish the children, if anything it is highly beneficial to them as it teaches them a valuable life lesson that such wrong doing is punishable by going to prison. The day trips out to see mum or dad in jail will be an adventure for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are saying people without children should be treated more harshly? What happened to all being equal under the law? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose that is the logical cololary of my assertion-it is called using your discretion and initiative,rather than acting as a robot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your enthusiasm for the trips out must be some attempt to recapture your childhood.Our family opted for the seaside,not HMP Armley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
