    I was looking at the local news and there is a lot of crime in my country. The Opposition Leader say's "Crime can be stopped" but when she was Prime Minister it was still the same. Now we see the Police Force, MP's and
    people in high places involve in some form of crime.

    My question is, If crime can be stopped what is the method or plan that can be put in place to reduce or stop crime, because everything they put in place for years don't seem to work. It really is a sad world we live in.

    Some people commit crimes because their government have failed them and their is no other way. Also crimes are committed because citizens don't work together to stop it and place all blame on their government. Therefore in order for crime to be stopped both the government and its citizens need to cooperate.

    Yes I agree with Olivia. The government and the people have to work together to stop crime. In my country Kenya, corruption is the reason behind all our troubles. We need to hold our leaders accountable for their crimes. If only our leaders would lead by example...

    'Can crime in your country be stopped?'. I don't think it is something that we can make everyone to do it like, right this second. Plus, crime is not something new. It has been like a tradition to some people. For me, crime is an activity or i'd rather say works that happened for every reason that possible. Everybody who committed crime, will always have their own reason. But whatever it is, i think it's a good to give whoever committed crime a second chance to live in their own country as a normal citizen/person.

    I don't think crime is something that can be stopped. But i do believe hat crime can be reduce up to 50%. If only our leader would think to do it. I do think Marijuana is somehing that can reduce crime. With this herb that we smoke, it opens up people's mind. And would think twice in doing bad things such as crime. Plus, if you're a marijuana smoker, you wouldn't have a time to do extreme activity such as running from cops, and jump off building to building to prevent himself from getting caught. Marijuana is something that should be legal insted of tobaccos and alcohol.

    That is a very good question, Crime is difficult to stop when some members of the police force are helping out criminals. Today criminals are well knowledged, well equiped and always find new ways to scam other peole.

    We lose our hard earned money so easy. Officers must always get training so they can outsmart these criminals.

    Absolutely not.
    You lock up criminals...Or heavily penalize then, or even kill them (in some cases) and there are always younger petty criminals ready to step up and take their place.
    Crime doesn't pay, though sometimes crime sets up a good illusion that it will pay and the people who are willing to step in and 'have a crack' at an easy pay day with drugs, for instance generally have some delusions of grandeur in which they believe to be smarter than the average person, law enforcement and the system itself.

    Crime cannot be stopped in my country (Australia) or yours. Though, with hard work and education of (some) criminals the crime rate could probably drop a little.

    I think both, Yes and No!

    There are multiple types of criminals, some criminals like thief or pocket pickers can be stopped. For that we need to give them opportunity for making their life as most of them do that because they are suffering financially, best example is Pakistan country where getting a job is like winning a jackpot, unemployment is main reason of these kind of crimes.

    Then there are criminals who tend to fight or kill people, these are really hard to stop. Because that usually happens in chain form, if Andrew (example name) kills Jhon (example name) then brother of jhon would kill Andew and once the brother of Jhon kills Andew, the father of Andrew would take law in his own hands and samsh the brother of jhon. Then the chain of criminals will form.

    But if we talk about Pakistan (my country) crime cannot be stopped.

    I would say as long as there is an imbalance of wealth in a country ,there will always be crime,if a county has a distinction between rich people and poor people there will always be crime,i think the better question is how can we reduce crime rather than how can we stop crime

    Crimes can't be stopped because everybody commits crime, you might want to save someone from getting into trouble because you simply like that person and you really don't want to see the person suffer so you go out of the way just to please that person and in doing so, you are committing a crime without you knowing but when you are been asked by someone you respect and they start counting charges on what you think it was just a mere thing then you will know you have committed a crime.

    According to me crime cannot be stopped completely anywhere in this world. Human wants are unlimited and therefore the feeling called "Greed" will always be there inside the people. With strict Law Enforcement it is possible to bring down the number of crimes happening around the world. Humans are bound to make mistakes and we will have thoses few people who what to make money quickly without doing any work. So it is sad to say but crime will always be there in this world.

    I don't think crime will ever be stopped, but of course it can be decreased. I think both the police and some sort of political person plays a main role in getting it so.

    There is no way to stop crime completely. Crime is the result of human nature, people are greedy in general and while each individual can fight these urges we are still animals in the simplest form. Until humanity can find a way to completely remove our animal instincts, we will always struggle with crime and to achieve peace.

    I don't think so crime can ever be stopped. Humans have a tendency to go rogue because of lack of intellectual and intelligent evolution. The external surroundings, the defamation, the corruption, the poverty lead to crime.Fighting crime is useless. The thing that should be fought with is the corporate and elite class world.

    We need to get to the root cause of all the crime, the terrorism and everything else that does not let humans thrive in the way we all were supposed to. We should eradicate every possible reason for someone to do a crime, collectively and not by violence or use of weapons of mass destruction.

    I don't think crime can be stopped. The way the world is, no the way human nature is, it would be impossible to stop crime. It's almost next to impossible punishing all of the people committing crimes.

    Not everyone is the same, and not everyone will feel the same way about the same things. So what to you might be a crime is not necessarily the same for other people, and vis versa. And since it's like that people will break the law and commit crimes because they feel that it goes against their sense of what's right and wrong.

    In truth I feel that the approach we use to stop crime is the wrong. I feel that instead of us telling and demanding that people obey something because it is the law, people should be educated on why the things they are doing are inherently wrong. In the world that we are born in it's never explained why we shouldn't do this, or why we shouldn't do that. Infact most of the time when someone tries to talk about ways a heinous crime could be avoided, they are mocked or the topic is just not something that people want to here about.

    But to answer your question, the best way to change crime is to change human nature.

    We can only change human nature if we understand it better and deeper. We need to evolve spiritually where everything would be beautiful. Where there would be no discrimination or racism or terrorism, because everyone would believe in balance, like the Yin Yang.

    Crime can be done because of various factors. A person who has not eaten since weeks might try to steal food from someone and it might be a crime in someone else's perspective. What matters is how we approach towards this problem and how we take steps or as individuals provide inputs. Though it is very important to punish people according to the crimes committed as the society we live in needs to be a better place and have a safe environment for everyone. Proper laws, a proper crime branch would be a step forwards.

    It is true that the criminal system needs to be adjusted. Most of the time people are punished based on the crime and not based on what led them to do the crime. More and more it seems like the system is getting worse, or should I say that the criminal system has always been the same and we are just now seeing the corruption.

    It all just boils down to the fact that money talks a lot, and that no one wants to waste money doing things the right way, especially for people who they look at as being criminals. Which leads us back to the fact that these criminal systems would not have been put up and evolved in such a way, nor would it have remained that way when found out that it was corrupt, if someone had not stopped others from trying to fix it.

    All of these systems we rail again, and all of these companies we have problems with, and all of these things that make our life harder for no reason at all were made by humans. They were made by human and kept in place by humans. And like I said unless you can change someone's nature, meaning unless you can change the fact that they are greedy, or jealous, or vain, or have violent tempers, or just like to go around making others lives miserable there will be no way to stop crime. For when you get rid of one criminal there will always be another one to replace the last one lost and they might not have the same values or views either.

    In my opinion, crime in my country cannot be stopped. I say that because no matter where a person goes in the United States there will always be crime. I say that because each individual is different and no one can determine their actions on that particular day until it is too late. With that being said I do believe that crime can be prevented but stopped completely not a chance.

    It's very hard to stop crime completely. We can mainly reduce the rate at which crime is committed by people.

    Anyway, there is also a lot of crime in my city especially in low-income areas where there is a also lot of poverty. Our government aims to reduce crime in these places by reducing school drop-out rates and making the places attractive to businesses.
