How can we stop this?

rhetorical_black_bearMichael Faraday School 28 January 2019

Right, sadness, forgiveness, family, fairness, trust, revenge, fear, dangerous, scary, belonging, misleading, punishment, angry, these are reasons and feelings, when people do crime. In 2012, world wide, there was recorded 8.9 million crimes (all types) Every year it falls by 14% in Wales and England. In the UK the most common crime is violent crime. Violent crime gets lot of media attention.

In class, we learnt Septhon's Story, when he was young, a gang were grooming him, giving him attention and acting like a father to him. So when the gang made Septhon his very close apprentice, the gang made him go and send drugs to other men, at first he didn't know what it was, until later on. He was in a dilemma. He was scared, so he started taking wepons to protect him. He went in jail seven times. He was filled with anger. There was no person to go to. Now he was older and joined a charity to stop gangs, because he regretted what he did in the past.

So, how can we stop it? I personally say that they should be more youth clubs, because the teens are the ones really getting into this, and the clubs will distract them for no trouble. Or, teachers can teach about this for them to feel like this am not getting into this mess. So it might cut the majority of people doing crime. Please comment if you have an idea about maybe how it can cut down. I'd like to see your ideas.

I agree too, because youth clubs can save their future. If there was more youth clubs, it could help young people that are in danger or in the grooming stage of a gang. So i agree with this post, and i like it very much because this can change peoples lives for the better.

i agree with this post . i agree that teenagers are starting to get into drugs and violent knife crime because they are vulnerable . i also agree that youth clubs can keep teenagers busy and they can also understand the dangers of violent crime , they can also understand there is always someone there that they can talk to about any questions , curiosity and worries or troubles .

sometime the police are not doing enough because they are letting people who are doing crimes get a way with the crime that they are doing so they need to do there jobs prople

I think that the police are stressing about the amount of crimes happening ,meaning if more police stress about how much crime there is more police might resign.

i think the way to stop people getting in to gangs is by teaching them about drugs and thing not to do like a workshop. Also maybe a meeting for parents so they know what to look out for so their children do not join gangs. the main reason i think for gangs is that they are normal neglected by their parent so they join a gang so they can liked

I agree because teachers should tell students not to get into drugs and say they will get into trouble and go to prison.

I think that we should have some more "safe places" where you can be cared for and homeless can go and have some food and enjoy the worth this will stop the homeless from needing a knife to protect themselves on the streets. I also that there should be a much more harder punishment for people with knifes

I double agree because drugs are bad for children and teenagers and other innocent people so parents , teatchers and others could tell them to forget about what drugs mean and what they are so that when their older they 'll soon know not to be a voilent/killer/ a bad person in all their life. ;)

I would like to challenge on what you said about only teenagers doing violent crime. In our class we watched Sephon's video. He was groomed from the age of 8 to do crimes.

  Hi clever_starfish,
  
  Well done for challenging using a evidence. Why do you think we chose to cover this topic with BNC students?
