  I do think its a factor, i dont think the solution is just letting car theives walk away because they are in a tough spot.

    I didn’t see the comments that said we should let car thieves walk away

      This person who is insisting we punish low level criminals because they all will turn into high level criminals needs to stop playing GTA, pay a bill or two in life, and realize that poverty creates desperation, and inf act, locking up “low level” criminals actually exposes them to the more hardened ones who have turned it into a lifestyle.

      If you don’t get thrown in a cage with dangerous people and treated like an animal, your odds of rehabilitation skyrocket.

      Exposing people to violence, punishment and harder criminals is the least productive way to rehabilitation.
