Law and order, also known as tough on crime and the War on Crime, demands a strict criminal justice system, especially in relation to violent and property crime, through stricter criminal penalties that may include longer terms of imprisonment, mandatory sentencing, three-strikes laws, and in some states, the capital punishment or death sentence.
Do you consider this a good idea? If you think there should be changes, what would you change in our Criminal Justice System?

If I were to be able to make the desicion, I would say it isn't a good idea. Even if someone were to make such a wrong choice, and even learn from it they may go on doing their horrible acts of duty. Criminals nowadays either give a crap or don't. They will learn from their mistakes after a few years.
