Well then the justice system needs a shake-up. Assuming the politicians will continue to screw up the economy no matter what, then at least tighten up justice.
In England and Wales (sorry I can't speak about Scotland where the law is different) whilst I don't believe there have been any sentencing guideline revisions, the Judges seem to be "reading the room" much better even just in the last few months and dishing out much tougher sentences. Whole life tariffs have been rarely awarded historically and yet we have seen a number of them this year, including a woman who is only the 4th ever if I'm not mistaken.

Tragic. Senseless. We run out of words, but can’t help wondering what these gunmen were thinking. Drugs were undoubtedly involved?

Death came in seconds. One of Jorge's sons lives next door to his parents' house and, hearing the screams, ran to the van. The scene he found was chilling: the driver's seat was covered in blood and his father no longer had vital signs. They couldn't even get him to a hospital.
Within minutes, the scene was swarming with police officers who are still trying to identify and track down the killers of the 70-year-old pensioner. And here appears one of the reasons that most outrage the family of "Pirilo": the cameras do not work.
"The cameras don't work, the lampposts don't work either, there are free zones and nobody does anything", complained Julieta Farías after her uncle's crime. But the indignation does not end there, because the young woman revealed that the same criminals continue to attack and have already added more victims to their record: "After killing my uncle they robbed a taxi driver and shot him in the leg".
Despite the two crimes in one day, the criminals have not even been identified yet. The family is suspicious of the neighbourhood they may have come from, but does not dare to formulate a hypothesis.
orge Maugeri was already retired and lived alone with his wife, who - for logical reasons - preferred to live in silence. Two of his three sons had gone to live in the United States and his daughter, who gave him his two granddaughters, lives in Argentina.
"Pirilo" worked for several years on the graphics staff of the newspaper Clarín. His friends describe him as a man who loved racehorses and barbecues, as well as his passion for Boca, who he was about to watch the evening he was killed.
"We are all devastated, we couldn't even say goodbye properly because we had to wake him in a closed casket. My aunt is in a very bad way, they were a couple for more than 50 years and they were together all the time. It was heartbreaking to see her that day," her niece said.
Try to assault and rob a policeman and you will get shot.
Uno menos!
Actually, the article says that he is alive and well.
Yikes.
