In the troubled times, using the heavy code, can't you do it? ─An alternative thinking on the strategy of drunk driving Associate Professor, Department of Crime Prevention, Ming Chuan University. Recently, social problems such as drugs, drunk driving, gatherings, and child abuse have been on the rise.Faced with the government’s revision of the law, it has been moving towards a “criminal criminal policy”, according to a unit On June 28, 2018, the poll pointed out that 83.0% of the people advocated the use of the ruling world. Execution of the death penalty to maintain order, only 8.3% of the people think that the death penalty can not be the right medicine, can not solve the problem question.

Severe punishment and law to curb crimes, such as theft and robbers should be punished by social claims and practices. In addition to the possibility of violating the constitutional proportionality principle, attempts to strengthen the "general prevention theory" by aggravating the cost of crime, that is, raising criminal responsibility. Practice, such as Baker's use of human rational thinking to reduce criminal behavior, this crime prevention thinking is based on "people have reason" and will choose "the least opportunity cost" behavior. ..........
