The Law Is Too Soft Against People Who Break The Law
People who get life sentences come out in 10 or 20 years and wreck other peoples lives once more. In Malaysia if you have a gun you get a death sentence and the murder rates are very small

A life sentence should mean life. Any dangerous person who is let out of prison is likely to do the same thing again. Letting someone out of prison early because of their good behaviour will not bring back the person whose life they have taken, nor will it bring justice to the victim's family.

There can be no true hard and fast rule - everything needs to be considered in the particular case. But where it is deemed to have been a wrongdoing, I agree, punishment needs to be stricter.

Rules were made to be broken.

And current laws are too harsh anyway.

Of course the murder rates are small, all the murderers are dead.

I'd like to see the % of population that dies by any means in Malaysia compared to the US.

In the Western World you can get away with murder.
Where property is concerned they come down on you like a ton of bricks.
