Does having a hard childhood (alcoholism, violent family) justify criminal behavior?
I just wanted to initiate this debate, and my opinion is NO. Even if the criminal had a tough life, I think it is moronic that people try to justify their deeds based on their previous life experiences. Even with all their traumas and everything, they are still people with minds and morale. They KNOW they are hurting people, they just don't give a shit.
In fact, even only the conception of trying to justify them makes me puke, and I consider it an insult for most people with unfortunate past who turned out to be productive citizens.

um, no. it would [b]explain [/b]why some turn to criminal behavior but it doesn't justify it. criminality is criminality.
-
If it can explain it, that may give grounds for justification
-
Doesn't justify it but it needs to be considered.
-
well, not really, me myself is a " always-get-bullied" kid, my parent is a jerk, but, I'm fine, I have done almost no criminality, but, sometimes, I did do a small criminal like teasing, but still, nothing to do with the reason of hard childhood
-
I wouldn't comment unless I had been through those traumas.
-
Nothing justifies violence/crime unless it is out of self-defense. As someone else said, it explains it.

1 ReplyJustify? No. Explain? Yes.

Edited by Player3Th0mas: 4/20/2013 12:46:48 PMIt doesn't JUSTIFY it. But it sure does help to get criminal.
