Bring back the lash and the noose
Sunday, July 06, 2008
Dear Editor,
The crime problem facing Jamaica can be easily solved. Turn to the book of Proverbs, in which it states, "When the punishment for a crime is not quickly carried out, evil doth creep into the minds of men."
Read the whole letter here.
Snippet(s):
"The nation of Jamaica must have set punishments for set crimes; these punishments must be executed in a just and fair manner without respect to person."
"Our leaders need to implement simple laws concerning these crimes, and these simple laws need to have simple punishments that are quickly executed so people can feel the results of their actions."
&
"To the Government, get your act up to speed, put in place laws that make sense and ensure the punishment for a crime is quickly executed.From the time a criminal is caught till he is punished should not exceed one month, and for petty crimes punishment should be executed in a day.
Bring back the lash and the noose."
