FIGHT AGAINST CRIME

We don’t have the strength to deterring crime if it's meant to happen. But it doesn’t mean that people are free to commit crime without knowing the consequences that might throw them living behind bars. What we should know is, fighting crime is our common responsibility and each one of us must give due cooperation to the police, even if it seems like a small contribution.

However, some people tend to commit crime for selfish reasons. Based on research made by specialist, criminals mostly did crime because they felt it could gain satisfaction. No matter if it was murder, rape, steal, or any other crime, they thought it’s the only way to end up their own problems.

Some of them thought that killing people is art. They did it on purpose without feeling any mercy on the victim. What makes it worst, is that there are no exception to women and children as well. Women are easily to be a crime victim comparing to men.

Besides that, some criminal did crime for revenge. Revenge is one of the most popular reasons. We can even smell the selfishness in it. Most criminals are mentally and emotionally abused. They couldn’t think or even act like a normal person does. Many also lack life-coping abilities and often suffer in silence when faced with difficulties. Some have turned to alcohol, drugs, and gambling that could bring them to the dark path. And of course for them, commit crime might seek release from everyday tensions of life.

Sometimes, the professionals also cannot deter themselves from doing crimes. From ministers to magnates, from doctors to teachers, there are possibilities that crime could be done by them.

Usually, malefactors often study their victims first before acting on their weakness. That is why as mention before, women probably easy to be a crime victim. Especially on a rape cases. Psychologist says doing a sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent, can leave a huge psychological impact on her. Children also, who have been sexually abused, will feel that they are unclean and have a little self-worth.

A criminal doesn’t even care for all these consequences to victims, because of their selfishness. They failed to control their lust of doing it. And when they attain success of what they are doing, they tend to do it again and again. Who do we have to blame?

Perhaps it is time for the government to incorporate a more humane and holistic approach into our education system. These could teach our society to learn how to handle stress, failure, pain and other forms of negative culture. Besides the government , parents, religious bodies, the private sector and the mass media have a role to play in helping to curb crime. We can achieve a sharp reduction in the crime rate if we work together as a nation.
