Carlo: I just couldn’t take it anymore. What is our society becoming? All I see is more crime and violence every day. Carla: I think it’s just the media focusing on sensational news stories. I don’t think things have really changed much, we just pay more attention to some aspects of life than we used to.
Carlo: You’re being far too indifferent. In order to solve a problem, first you need to be aware of it. And then you need to take effective action.
Carla: What would you suggest?
Carlo: Stop spoiling these criminals. It’s time to put some real fear into their hearts. If they are caught breaking the law, they should know they will be severely punished.
Carla: It seems to me that even criminals are human beings. They have some rights. They shouldn’t be tortured or starved or deprived of medical care. Or have their labor exploited so someone else can profit from their work- that sounds like slavery.
