    I could see this logic being truthful, I’m not too versed with global metrics on harshness of punishment but I’m also not familiar with how many other countries have teens in their ranks

      I have news for you: harsh punishments don’t work on people with poor impulse control.

      As anyone with an addiction knows, the harshness of the punishment just hurts more. It doesn’t stop you from giving in to a compulsion. You have to remove the opportunity to do it.

      In this case, they need to screen these people better.
