The reports in the Herald Sun 24th November ‘24 about the escalation of violent crime by juveniles, some as young as ten, is a rude awakening for a Government that is by and large responsible. 

We can expect platitudes and lame excuses, but action is improbable, and anything the Government does will skirt around the reality that they have made some major ‘faux pas in managing the youth issues.

First and foremost, the Bail Laws are a significant contributor.                    

The definition of insanity can be easily applied to the Victorian Government's posture on youth crime matters. 

‘Doing the same thing tomorrow and expecting a different result.’

How many of the brainiacs within the Government could have concluded that arresting a child for a crime and putting them immediately back into the same environment that caused them to offend in the first place was a brilliant idea? This is beyond reasonable comprehension.
