As long as your country treats people in jail better than the poorest homeless people living on the streets, jail or rehab will never be a deterrent to crime. Only when the punishment is worse than your lowest class of people have it, will it serve as a deterrent.
Yeah that doesnt really work for mexico. Since the gangs have power already and can dish out way more brutal punishment then the goverment. So people are caught between ruthless cartels and the goverment.
Same rule would apply, first I understand Mexico's government is as corrupt as the cartels if not part of them. The rule of punishment would mean when and if a gang member or part of the criminal enterprise is caught there would be no jail time. Once convicted they would be executed in the manner or fashion that they treated their worst victim.
And that's why I say annexation is really the only way Mexico could potentially be brought back from being a super corrupt country. When you cant enforce your own laws in a country then you can expect your neighbors to be seeking alternative solutions.
I take it you are in the USA and think it enforces its own laws? I'm sorry but the US is getting closer to Mexico style of corruption rather than being able to fix or help Mexico.
I mean we dont have as many ruthless gangs as mexico and we actively try to put them into prison so yeah I think we do enforce laws better than mexico. It's all state depending. California will obviously worse at enforcement of illegal activities than texas or Montana.
Is it normal to beat and strip thieves naked and parade them in the nude?
