Actually, might as well flounce.

Perhaps Mrs Attica won't allow him a non-custodial alternative.

Nowhere in the above is anything mentioned about 'No crime'.This is a great gathering of the worlds leading thinkers against criminal justice systems
International Conference on Penal abolition
Creating a scandal - prison abolition and the policy agenda
23, 24 & 25 July 2008, Kings College, London
The Howard League for Penal Reform is organising and hosting the above international conference to develop the case for the abolition of prison and to rethink penal policy. The conference will discuss and hear about the impact of the penal system on our communities and provide suggestions for new and alternative approaches. It will look at custody and community interventions as alternatives to imprisonment; prisons and the politics of poverty; the role of the media and public opinion; and the role of privatisation and capitalism in penal policy today.
I don't think you read your own posts.No crime = no police surely?
)Why don't you go, then you can tell us all about it?
My Mrs and kid can be demanding, so can my finances and 'diary'. But if I believe in something to post a heads up on the web for something THATS IN 5 MONTHS TIME, i reckon I could clear it with the wife/kids/diary.

(and Hey! Wacko thread title...)
Penal abolition logically leads to de-criminalisation and no crime... It's one part of what is needed.
If there are no laws then there can be no breaking of laws!Logically leads there...does it really, fuck me why didn't I think of that.
What a load of bollox.
If there are no laws then there can be no breaking of laws!
Exactly, if you think about it logically. However I doubt the theoretical principal of the removal of all laws could be done logically, far too simplistic.
And regardless of the obvious "remove all laws = no crimes commited" analagy, humans now have an inate knowledge of what constitutes a crime basically by their own human existence, regardless of whether it was technically not a crime in a criminal justice system.
So the theory is PIE IN THE SKY!!
IMO
I'm gonna wrap the plastic around your fekking throat firky.![]()
Have you seen my neck? You'd ne more than a bit of plastic.

You would be funny if you weren't so sad.
FIle post in bin thataway >>>>>>>>>>>Politics forum thataway >>>>>>>>>>>
abolish prison?
so I could go and rape and kill a load of people but as long as I say sorry and do some community work it will be OK?

You're really not very persuasive.FIle post in bin thataway >>>>>>>>>>>
Not really sure how the above response adds to the discussion, and i may have said that theory was "a load of bollox" and "pie in the sky" but I don't remember saying anything to deserve being called sad.
Or does my mere disagreement with what is being said by you cause you to react this way?
You wouldn't be a rapist in an anarchist society, duh![]()
You really haven't got a clue, have you?![]()
