Probation: should we be more opened?

without comments

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is a question about our attitude and impact that our attitude can leave on people on probation. Why it worries me – it is rather why it should worry all of us.

 

Probation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probation

(Probation is the suspension of all or part of a jail sentence)

 

What amazes me the most is how good in some countries, for instance like UK (http://www.probation.homeoffice.gov.uk/output/page2.asp) they have developed sound help and created good environment for people on probation. I may sound silly but I never have imagined problems that convicted could face and that around us there are developed systems that help to eliminate and ease the pressure on convicts.

 

I believe we have share info and thoughts on this topic then it will lead to more opened society and shape the environment -> we help, we share, we are aware and welcome them back rather than throw them back to jail.

A saying “you are afraid of something you don’t know”

 

You might ask why now such a topic? Might be that crime will activate along with global crises and if we would not welcome convicts on probation back we might see them to be the 1st that will be forced to turn to crime gain.

Bet tādas lielākas apvienošanās parasti gan ir krasi polāras – apvienojas pret vai par. Cik dažādi „pret” piemēri mums vēsturē bijuši un joprojām ir? Pret terorismu. Pret narkomāniju. Pret Padomju savienību. Pret buržuāziju. Pret globālo sasilšanu. Pret Microsot, galu galā. Pret… tā var turpināt bezgalīgi…

Jāpieņem lēmums, vai dienasgrāmatai izmantot šo platformu. Kā pagaidu risinājums tā varētu būt?
