I support this petition. Children need to be taught at home and in society to respect others, listen to their elders, behave themselves properly in public, use self control.
I support this petition. Changes to the Young Offenders Act must be given serious consideration in light of the mind set that many youth have today - that they are untouchable. Regardless of age any human being needs to reminded that there are consequences for the choices that they make - especially when they affect others.
I support this petition. What steps would be taken to keep them off the streets if it were an adult that committed this crime. If anything there should be more extensive steps being taken BECAUSE they are minors. They have CHOSEN to begin their adult years with murder. If our justice system was strict enough THAT would have been a deterent. In countries where they amputate your hand for theft, they have very few theft issues.
I support this petition. I can't believe what the times are coming to, they should not be in the street, I am near the same age and I know morals,values and ethics, these young men have none.
I support this petition. The Young Offenders act should be abolished and all offenders should be tried equally and penalties need to be stiffer. I agree with Sarah Watson and the many other comments made here.
I support this petition.as a man of 20 I do not feel these young people have taken the time to think about what they have done and how it will follow them their whole lives. Well welcome to the real world and now pay the price like the men you think you are. (NOT)
