Are Asbos a Good Idea

Asbo’s are a really good idea and will help innocent people get the freedom and security they deserve. They will also help future generations! I don’t see the point, it won’t change them as a person. They’ll just look for new partners in crime and new places to vandalize and new victims to harass.

Are ASBOs good for society?

Yes because… ASBOs can help effectively deal with individuals who fall through the net of the criminal justice system due to the minor nature of their crimes. Even though they are relatively minor their persistent nature means that they are harmful to the community and their neighbours.

Do ASBOs go on your record?

If you’re given an ASBO this doesn’t mean you’ve been convicted of a crime, and it won’t be part of a criminal record. But it is a crime to break the terms of an ASBO. Getting an ASBO means you won’t be allowed to do certain things, such as: going to a particular place, such as your local town centre.
