When contemplating harmful and destructive actions, the criminal’s thinking seems to go like this: “Can I get away with it?” – rather than considering whether the action(s) are right or wrong, whether these are harmful to others and/or to one’s self.
Clearly, there has been a failure here to instill a properly functioning conscience in the individual. This cannot be done in the schools today, which are driven largely by leftist ideology. Families, loving parents are the only ones who can help to instill values in children and young adults.
