WHY THIS MATTERS
Enough is enough.
There was a time in Australia when we would let our kids play on the street, walk to neighbours, or collect mail from the letterbox. Parents are in such fear that they're only feeling at ease if their children are under constant supervision. We are not meant to live like this, enough is enough.
Our homes are being invaded, our cars stolen, people killed, all the while governments sit on their hands and go 'blah, blah, blah'.
Something has to change, we are not meant to live like this.
The Petition
To the Honourable President and Members of the Senate in Parliament assembled
The petition of the undersigned shows:
Communities across Australia are living in fear of escalating crime, and their governments seem unable or unwilling to meet their primary responsibility to the people which elect them: to keep the Australian community safe from harm. The undersigned call for a better approach to deter crime in Australian communities – stronger penalties (especially for repeat offenders), stronger bail regimes, effective youth intervention programs that emphasise responsibility and consequences, and greater police resources for more effective law enforcement and crime prevention.
