[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 3227982, member: 23"] What our lawmakers have done in their collective “wisdom” is made some laws more lenient and complicated. Once a person on the street is caught, then the officers may have to get the book out and look it up for the correct charge, make a decision to keep or release with citation (which we know they won’t appear for) and hope they didn’t release one they should have kept. It’s turned into a big mess because the judicial system is overloaded, jails are full, liberals think they can be rehabilitated and the “it’s just property, they didn’t hurt anyone, it can be replaced” attitude. Okay, it’s just property and it can be replaced, but WHO is going to pay for it? Obviously not the thief who was just caught and released with a “promise to appear”. WHO? Things like this is why the crime rate is rising. The criminals know they can do what they want and no one will do anything about it. Its an open invitation to steal. It’s going to get worse.
