Why so many criminals?

I'm watching a show called Caught on Tape right now. Probably no different than Cops, Lockup, and all those other crime shows. It is just amazing to me how many criminals are in this country. One guys wife was being robbed at a store and she was giving him the money but he wanted to still be violent with her and her husband said why? Why didn't he take the money and go? Why did he have to be so violent? I am just amazed at how many criminals there are in this country. I grew up in a small town in New England and my parents taught me to respect other people and other peoples stuff. Once when I was 7 years old I took some girls Barbie Doll and boy did I get it. I still remember the spanking, and I was more embarrassed from the shame my mom and dad said they felt towards me. Taught me a good lesson and I can still remember 40 years later how I felt. I just cannot understand why there are so many criminals. Why do they think they deserve something without working for it. Why do they think they can just take what other people have. And I'm not talking about all the other haneous (sp?) crimes that happen (murder, kidnap, etc). I don't get it and it makes me sad that I live in a society that is filled with these pieces of garbage.

WHAT?! Some of the worst criminals...
at least money-wise, as in stealing church money and money from little old ladies, are the big time evangelists on TV!! Do you think these people have "lack of God"?? I personally think it's lack of values/morals in this country (and other countries of course) that cause people to commit crimes, and of course lack of conscious! It has absolutely nothing to do with lack of God! I can't count how many times I've seen news reports where people commit a crime and everyone that knew them said what a great person they are and how shocked they were that they committed the crime - plus, a lot of these people go to church and actually believe in God and it still doesn't phase them to commit the crimes. I don't know, maybe it's because they believe in God that makes them think God will save them or forgive them, so it's okay to commit the crimes?? I'm not an atheist, I just live in the same town at Pat Roberts and where that whole network of his is located and I'm sick of these people living like kings with their multi-milliion dollar homes, helicopters, vacation homes, etc., while there are people in our country that are homeless, without insurance, and starving - I'm sorry but I don't think this is the Christian way to behave and I'm sick of people saying that God is the answer to everything! I really don't think this has anything to do with why these people commit crimes.
THey need love before becoming criminals, not
x
Yeah, well the criminals obviously know how much they pay too. sm
I can't tell you how much stuff has been stolen from our property (ALL METAL) and sold for scrap metal. It literally disgusts me. I hate that business.
criminals need love too...probably didn't get enough
maybe, perhaps........
Criminals should be divided into groups SM
according to crimes committed. Nonviolent or violent. To place nonviolent drug-related crime people in prisons with hard-core inmates is crazy. First time felons need rehab. Prisons are just making it worse. Ever see shows about prisons in Europe? Sheesh, like night and day.
By the way, I've never been to prison in my life and neither has anyone I know.
just a thought-all criminals have family and friends
All criminals/bad people do have people and family and friends in their lives who love them. Does not make those people, the family and friends who love them, criminals.............
even most criminals hate child molestors (nm)

tougher? why? so we can leave less room for the real criminals
in jail? yes, let's put all the garden tools in jail and let the child molesters and rapists run free. Great idea.
I don't know about that - guys like that usually suffer in prison - even most criminals hate chil
He would probably get what he deserves better in prison - from the other prisoners, as long as they don't let him out!!
