Boot camp for young offenders

The 'Law and Order' party finally come up with something that might actually work. Nice one FG. Gut reaction from all the other parties is of course to throw up in the face of Enda Kenny's every word, but the army is surely a better place for young offenders than adult prisons or psychiatric hospitals.

Of course, on the other side of things, what if you end up training a load of psychotic young thugs to kill... I suppose in the Irish army it's not likely they'll ever be in the situation to kill anyone, but it is something to consider.

Anyone remember 'Lorcan' from Fair City... he started off a scumbag, went into the army and, hey presto, came out a scumbag... then again, that is Fair City. Never mind.
