Hi,
I`m sorry, I didn`t realise I had offended you, but it obviously wasn`t difficult.
The ideas are not cast in stone (to reiterate). The points system can be adapted to the degree or nature of the original crime.
After all, this is a discussion forum not a legal mandate. Do you think that the problem is simple, just put them in prison and forget about them entirely? With some - rapist, murderer`s et al I would agree. But there are many who could change. I`m not a social worker, but I have dealt with people through the criminal justice system and I have had the experience of working with them - no, no, not an inmate either!!

I wasn`t attempting to insult you, you seem to do that perfectly well by your own demeanour.

An example:

Or you should think again about your scheme. Don't ask for feedback if you're going to get mardy when people don't rush up to pat you on your back. I gave you straight, plain answers as to my thoughts, precisely as you asked. I am not at all impressed with your attitude to my reply.

I`m not asking for patronising compliments, but your arrogance speaks volumes. What is your problem????? THIS IS A DISCUSSION - HELLO....
We can`t go forward burying our heads in the sand and hoping that things might turn out alright in the end. The present system is manifestly wrong, it doesn`t prevent crime and it doesn`t offer solutions.
Prostitution might be unpalatable, but it exists, and will always exist whilst humans live on this planet. Unlicensed knocking shops, abuse women, rip off punters and spread disease. Get real, and don`t just pass insults, offer solutions. If you had any half decent comments to add, I could at least think that you`ve read this in depth.
I read the news report from Germany regarding licensed knocking shops. Okay, that`s Germany, it is not here - or are you saying that if it were legalised we would naturally have to follow the German model. Huh?
Just because they have ran the system incompetently, it doesn`t mean to say that in every country it has to follow the same course, or does follow the same course? There are other countries in the world that run perfectly well state licensed brothels.
If people agree or disagree with my points that`s fine, because that`s democracy. Your `mardy` attitude (to quote) doesn`t concern me, but reasoned debate does. Why not invest in a biro instead of a quill, because your attitudes are very much fixed in the past.
Anyway, feel free to write more - hopefully something interesting, This is only a debate that won`t change the law of the land - just words and opinions. It`s really not worth getting het up and bothered.
