Crime by Marcus Teoh Zhe Xuan 4 Kindness 13

The above picture shows some ways to send alerts when you are in danger; via text, via email and via phone. I feel it is relevant to the topic because it lets you know the different ways of getting help.
The above picture shows a man that has committed a crime and the police are leading him away. He has handcuffs on his hands. I feel it is relevant to the topic because the police always handcuff offenders before going to the police station. The police also hold them with their arms locked so that they cannot fight back


This picture shows a man trying to break into a house. He is trying to pick the lock. I feel it is relevant to the topic because burglars always wear caps to cover their faces and use pliers to pick the lock.


This picture shows a man ransacking a drawer for valuables. I feel it is relevant to the topic because burglars always search and steal valuables in unlocked drawers.


This picture shows some boys [aged 8-9] entering a house by the window. I feel it is relevant to the topic because no matter how old you are, You can still commit crimes.







Introduction
The social issue I will focus on is crime. I chose this issue because crime can harm us in many ways, physically and mentally. It is also anti-social behaviour. I am also concerned about the number of crime cases increasing steadily every year.
Societies define crime as the breach of one or more rules or laws. Crime is usually an action that is injurious, causes serious loss or damage to the population or an individual.
Conviction of committing crimes is an event that an accused person is tried and convicted of a crime. Punishment for breaching the law is to make criminal behaviour less attractive and more risky. Punishment is also to reflect a consensus of condemnation for the identified behavior and to justify a punishment imposed by the law, in the event that an accused person is tried and convicted of a crime.
Why crime is committed
Reasons for committing a crime include greed, anger, jealously, revenge, or pride. Some people decide to commit a crime and carefully plan everything in advance to increase gain and decrease risk. Others commit crimes on impulse, out of rage or fear.
Conclusion
For example, you can prevent burglary by:
securing your home and property you can save yourself the distress and expense of crime, and make your community a safer and better place to live, et cetera.
