Is the court system too lenient on some crimes?

What crimes do you think should have tougher punishment? What should those punishments be and why?
 
Drunk/under the influence of a mind-altering substance driving laws need to be much, much harsher than they are now. So many people get away with one, two, three, four incidents before they get their license taken away, or even before they kill someone or kill themselves. It's ridiculous.
 
Any crimes by police and government officials.

Those in positions of public trust should be hammered hard when they violate that trust.
 
Animal cruelty and child abuse.

i agree 100%...

it also retracts their abusive manners if they know that the outcome of getting caught is a tough punishment instead of nothing more of a slap-on-the-wrist in most cases...
