The Youth Criminal Justice Act
By
James Bredin

We have a different justice system for young criminal hoods,
There's no need for them to feel ashamed or run and hide in the woods,
Where our Youth Criminal Justice Actis considered a joke,
And criminally inclined teenagers have a chance to provoke.

Accountability does not seem to come into play,
The degree of leniency seems forever on display,
Where murderers under twelve cannot be named or even charged,
Though a terrorist shooting a machine gun and camouflaged.

Emphasis is placed on keeping the offender in the community
So we have hoods with what seems an acquired immunity,
Where the protection of society does not come into play,
Where soft weird political correctness has come to stay.
