Um, why are we arresting the woman too? Seems a bit extreme, no?
She was an active participant in the crime. Justice doesnt discriminate based on gender. If she was involved, she should face the consequences just like anyone else. Gender shouldnt be a get-out-of-jail-free card. Accountability is accountability, plain and simple.
I dont agree with arresting sex offenders. Let them live in peace!
I think the police should focus on preventing crimes rather than just arresting offenders.
I think the police should focus on preventing crimes, not just arresting offenders.
Preventing crimes is important, but arresting offenders is necessary to hold them accountable and protect society. Its not an either/or situation. Police need to do both effectively to maintain law and order.
I dont get why they arrested the woman too, seems unfair.
They arrested her because she was an accomplice, its not unfair. She was involved in the crime and should be held accountable. Dont defend someone just because theyre a woman. Justice is blind to gender.
Wow, maybe they should focus on preventing crimes instead of just arresting after!
I think the police should focus on preventing crimes rather than just arresting people.
Preventing crimes is important, but arresting criminals is necessary to hold them accountable for their actions. Police should do both to maintain law and order. Just focusing on prevention wont address the harm caused by those who break the law.
I believe in second chances. Lets focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
I get where youre coming from, but some crimes are just unforgivable. Rehabilitation is important, but not at the expense of justice for the victims. There has to be a balance between second chances and accountability.
I think the police should focus on bigger crimes instead of targeting sex offenders.
Is it fair to group a woman with convicted sex offenders? Discuss!
Whats the point of arresting them if theyre already convicted? Seems redundant to me.
Why focus on the woman? What about the convicted sex offenders actions?
Shouldnt the focus be on preventing crimes rather than just arresting offenders?
Preventing crimes is ideal, but arresting offenders is a crucial part of the justice system. Punishing wrongdoers deters future crimes and provides justice for victims. Both prevention and punishment are necessary for a safe society.
Why are they arresting the woman too? Seems fishy to me.
Do we really think arresting sex offenders is the best solution? #DebateTime
Arresting sex offenders is not only the best solution, its the only solution. We cant let predators roam free to harm more innocent victims. Debate over. #ProtectTheVulnerable
Shouldnt the focus be on preventing future crimes rather than just arrests?
Do you think the woman arrested was involved or just caught up in it?
She was definitely involved. No way she was just caught up in it. People need to stop making excuses for criminals. If you play with fire, youre gonna get burned. Time to take responsibility for your actions.
Do you think the punishment for convicted sex offenders is harsh enough?
Yes, I believe the punishment for convicted sex offenders should be even harsher. They destroy lives and deserve severe consequences. No leniency for such despicable crimes.
