Community Service

When people violate the law these days they are given community service. If you are famous then it makes the news.

This is an excellent example of the judiciary having lost its collective mind. First: it cheapens all of those who serve the community out of willingness to give back because it makes forced community service equal to voluntary community service where there is no incentive other than to help.

Second: It makes crime easy "If I drive drunk in L A I will only have to pick up trash for a couple of hours a day then go party at night and have a big laugh about it"

It is time to repeal the right of judges to give community service. If after serving a sentence and the person is on probation make community service a requirement when they check in with their probation officer.
