Oh please. Like apologists make crime rates soar, that sociologically ignorant. Crime rates soar with inequality, poverty and discrimination. I'm not excusing their crimes to be very clear, I just think the woman acted in a way that needlessly endangered all parties. If you really think criminals should get what's coming to them, I would take a shotgun and go on a banking CEO hunting tour, but rich criminals can get away with nearly everything, or am I mistaken?

Mate, you're clearly someone to whom crime has never been a problem. Probably grew up in a first world country. Crime is roaring due to crime apologists - the ones who refuse to punish criminals. These are facts.

So if that's the case, exactly how low is your bar for the death penalty?  All this guy is saying is that he doesn't think people should be killed for stealing or attempting to steal.  Are you instead advocating the death penalty for burglary?

I don't see "you shouldn't kill every criminal" as "refusing to punish them"
