Adult rioters who committed extremely severe crimes should be given prison sentences combined with community service.\r\nTreating the rioters simply as outsiders who deserve long prison sentences or who deserve to be thrown out of their homes only makes them feel even more alienated from society. Punishment should not be based on a simple revenge-mentality but on a more profound societal meaning.\r\nCommunity service and voluntary work will unite offenders and victims and offer a better future prospect for all involved (and for us who were not directly inflicted).\r\nAll decent residents of the UK; your country needs you to sign this petition.\r\n","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":1,"created_at":"2011-08-11T01:46:59.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:26:49.320Z","rejected_at":"2017-06-21T12:33:58.987Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2011-08-11T01:46:59.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":null},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
