The everyday stressors and crimes affecting ordinary, honest citizens, were never the concern of those living a more luxurious life in gated communities...out of the reach of common crime. <br /><br />A few criminal trials and obligatory let-offs later, the young offender graduates and his new status creates a valuable commodity. 'Premium clients' are very much sought after by criminal lawyers; their Green Form club and the associated bandwagons.<br /><br />And who pays for it all?MTGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12210729282668220478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-49598485425928856422023-03-10T15:47:08.220+00:002023-03-10T15:47:08.220+00:00And I'll wager that before he was 16 he SHOULD...And I'll wager that before he was 16 he SHOULD have been in the courts but they tried their best to keep him out of them. After all, all social workers are taught that if you go to prison as a 'child', you're much more likely to end up there as an adult.<br /><br />So they don't send them any more.<br /><br />Alas, no one taught them that correlation isn't causation, and that the reason they ended up in prison as adults was the same reason they went there as juveniles - because they were criminals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
