Many people are afraid to leave their homes because of the fear of crime. Some believe that more actions should be taken to prevent crime. Others feel that little can be done. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

The popularity of atrocity today has made people stay indoors for self-protection.

While

it is a common belief that reducing the felony rate is a nearly impossible mission, I hold the view that there are certain measures that can convert the world into a safer place to live in. On the one hand, many people argue that in

such

a current era of moral decadence, any attempts to prevent breach would turn out to be a failure. Poverty and unemployment are considered chief precursors to law violation, and only when these two social issues are eliminated will atrocity disappear.

However

, it is true that a society can only provide a limited number of jobs for its residents, and those who are not lucky enough to receive a good education from childhood would find it difficult to pursue a career to make ends meet.

Such

individuals lack both skills and orientation and from their perspective, becoming a thief might be a better way to survive compared to unstably living on governmental subsidies or performing menial work. It seems that the root of

this

problem cannot be solved completely, and

this

is why how to halt law-breaking may remain an insurmountable question for the government.

On the other hand

, I am of the opinion that there are still solutions to maintain criminal justice. It is worth mentioning first that, stricter sets of laws are required, and the penalties should correspond to the severity of the wrongdoings. In a variety of countries,

such

as the United Kingdom or Italy, capital punishment has been abandoned; but I believe it should be reintroduced as the fear of death may deter potential offenders and stop them from committing serious crimes.

Secondly

, the government should encourage companies and organizations to expand and run more projects. These actions create jobs;

therefore

, those who live under the poverty line not only do not have to become pickpockets or burglars for survival but

also

stand a chance to earn a living with their own clean money. In conclusion, I believe that the aforementioned measures can create more peaceful communities and ensure the safety of the residents.
