few days ago, I went to visit my parents' house in the neighborhood of Maroñas Racecourse. In front of the house, out of the garden and behind a street lighting column, I saw what looked like a credit card or access, folded in half. Caught my attention, so I raised it and examined it. To my surprise, turned out to be an access card issued by the Command of the Air Force, which belonged to an officer of that institution. The card had a text back saying something like "if you find this card, call or NNNNNNNN NNNNNNNN ...", so I called and I finally get in touch with the person.
turns out that this person had been assaulted a few days ago, when he was visiting in the neighborhood. The most struck me as attackers was to appoint a group of well known criminals, and torment for years residents of the area. "The Smurfs", I say ... Talking
told me that even the police dared to go where these thugs live, which triggered in me a series of feelings, a mixture of anger, helplessness and disbelief.
Did the police dare not enter the place where living 
KNOW these thugs, who for YEARS hit the area Maroñas neighborhood? How can this be possible?
It turns out that these criminals are all MINOR
, so even though they were looking to lock them up (which seems to have happened before), being lower in the best case, they were "invited to stay" in dangerous juvenile institutions (which are so I have understood, but inappropriate for that matter), of which end up running away, to return to the streets where they are doing all they know. have used various forms of theft and deception in its history, the most striking to leave a two or three years in the middle of the street for a vehicle to stop, so you can attack its occupants with sticks and stones to snatch anything they have on hand, hurting and destroying the vehicle in the process. They also have been seen jumping up truck with all kinds of items such as tarpaulins, boxes of belongings, training wheels, tools and even bottles of 13 kilos. Stations have been installed "toll", in which to pass, you have to "make something" and there are streets that no longer happens dealer or seller. If someone walks by, it turns out that was because they neglected or did not know where they got. His methods and escalating violence are used over time, which is understandable, because no matter what you do, always get away with impunity. If someday you find yourself around the neighborhood Maroñas, remember to spend far away from the Avenue Victor, a few steps from the Hippodrome, and that's where everybody knows UNTIL THE POLICE living these criminals.
And make no mistake, this happens for several years. How can this keep happening and nobody does anything about it? And when I say nobody, NOBODY
really, because even the neighbors get involved, lest the usual retaliation. Well, the "response" is obvious that this band is formed only
by minors. Yes, because here in Uruguay, while you're under 18, if you want you can kill several people without being considered un delincuente apto para ser juzgado como tal. También podés acumular decenas de entradas en las comisarías que se te ocurran, ya que nada impide que salgas por la misma puerta por la que entraste
ANTES
de que el damnificado termine de hacer la denuncia. Y como guinda para esta torta, aunque hayas sido un delincuente de los peores, una vez que cumplís los 18 años, sos una persona nueva, con un historial limpio e inmaculado, como cualquier otro ciudadano honesto del país, porque todas las entradas en comisaría y todos los delitos que hayas cometido se borran automáticamente, redimiéndote sin sufrimiento ni pena. Definitivamente algo está mal acá.
¿Porqué hay offenders who are over 50 entries (yes, you read that right, FIFTY ) in police stations, and always come back to do the same? Why not just three innings to be considered a serious problem? So, once, can need it, twice, look, look for an alternative or left ... three times, and finished in your luck ... But not here ... dozens of times are never enough. The worst offender is in our jail is over seventy entries, mostly as a minor. Now remains in prison (or at least we think so), but was required to have seventy entries to lock him up? No, they locked him up because he committed a crime after 18 years! The sixty and older do not have many entries! Maybe the judge put it "shadow" has considered these previous entries were an aggravation, but in a country where murder go out in 15 years maximum (unless you behave yourself, as you can get out in half that time), you probably will not mean anything. What do others then? Are we rifándonos life every time we go out to work? Sorry, but I think that we can not accept that.
What will happen is one of two things:
O 1) laws are amended to cover properly this loophole that represent juveniles, or
2)
people, tired of the atrocities and the ineffectiveness of the law, will begin to take justice into their own hands, and the result will be a chaos much more difficult to resolve.
This latter has already happened before, though not massive, so it is still time to use the first alternative. In ancient times, when an offender to a people harassed, often the same people made of weapons, reduced and executed, regardless of whether a law would dictate that such conduct was lawful or not. Will we come to that here as well? Are we to allow further escalation of the violence? Where is it going to draw a real line and final? Do we expect to have 800 crimes a week, 5 of which ends with dead victims as in Caracas?
People have to unite against this. It's the same principle of terrorism: a few threaten many, many, out of fear or indifference, they let this continue to happen. The law does not protect us, that the child is a dependent and vulnerable, and can not take legal action against him but against their parents, which is useless, since it contains the negligent (passive) idle against the offender (active). Why not lock them both, and make examples of them? This has to end quickly and effectively. You can no longer tolerate the crime, regardless of the nuances that you want to. We do not want to continue selling it is an issue of poverty, which is a difficult social context, we have to be more tolerant, we must respect the human rights of offenders and all that crap they use to try to convince us that we are really good and that things are being done correctly. What we want is to go to work without rifarnos life, without risking being robbed or killed for the content of our pockets or purses, and an end to impunity for offenders. We need a strong solution, directly and effectively, before it escalates to intolerable levels. It is not just to create more work because offenders who have twenty or thirty entries are unwilling to work, but "rescue" easy prey raiding (read: older women, seniors, people with children, that can be easily threat ", etc..). It is easier to get up early for work ... No lie more with us if there is more work and less poverty, fight crime. Criminals as "The Smurfs" are criminals soul and are proud of it (did forgot that character on television that came out screaming a viva voce "Iron is not done, was born !"?), so the subject can not only be giving them work. I do not deny that some cases of necessity require a review, but how much is needed to realize that an offender who has twenty entries in the police for theft, assault, takeover and / or murder is insurmountable? Are we so naive as to believe that ALL
the world can be saved? Where are the human rights of victims, if we worried about the criminals? Do not you think that we are becoming softer and that our current government tolerates crime, possibly because some of them long ago learned to be "on that side the counter "and have a different view on this?
Lords, a bill strong, powerful and effective it is imperative, unless you want to Montevideo to become a war zone, as they are now Caracas, Bogotá or Brazilian favelas, where the mafia runs the streets and other citizens are just numbers. Penas harder the more times it offends less contemplation for juvenile offenders with three inputs and you stay "saved", reduced the age of accountability, most appropriate prisons, where they are allowed to be rewarded for the amount of nonsense that are made at the hands of other inmates, but in reverse, etc.
What does it take to do something serious? Who asked him?
