To make curfews is a strong blow to americans rights. The govt has no business in setting up a time we can or can not be on the street. It also stereotypes teens as being destructive but they can do because teens have no power. It also undermines the authority of parents. To put curfews on teens is not different than not allowing gays,blacks,latinos,whites,asians,old,disabled ect out at a certain time.

DarthNader Invictus_88 DarthNader Invictus_88 DarthNader rarely does the population need more protection than from a government so mad with power they think they can put curfews. You know, a curfew can be placed by a local council or by a local police force. They can be placed only on the individuals who have been causing the problems. It need not be wholesale.The definition of irrelevant. it doesnt matter who imposes it: curfews are evil If that is your belief, then I'm led to believe that you've only a hazy understanding of the word evil.All I'm saying is this: If you don't have a healty ( and by healthy, I mean paranoid) hate and fear of authoritarianism of any and all kinds, you haven't read 1984 enough times I do hope you're not serious.

I know a threat when I see one, and, though I hate to sound like jerry fallwell- nothing is a bigger threat to the american Ideals of freedom than an authoritarian government. Not terrorism, not crime, not "activist judges".

They can tap your phone, they record your calls, they read your emails and track your internet searches. They beat up your grandfather, torture terrorist suspects and leave poor people to drown.
But they won't let a troublemaker stay up all night hanging around town?
Oh cry havoc! Let slip the dogs of war!

rolleyes well, it wasnt me who brought up curfews. All I'm saying is, it started with curfews, then before you know it, BAM, patriot act, b***h. And when they do, in fact, drag your grandpa out on the street and beat him to death: dont say I didnt warn you

It's possible to have the valid curfews without the invalid infringments on civil liberties.
Also, the beaten-up old man? It happened recently, in New Orleans, it was on the news. That's why I mentioned it.

Anything that can be done at night can be done in broad daylight, I say. And anyway, criminals can always break one MORE law and stay out past ten.
If it's a matter of safety for the potential victims of night crime, well, what is the curfew, my mommy?

Curfews could be a good idea, if everyone slept during the night, and was awake during the day, but its not that way all the time. I think with a curfew you would run into several problems and issues. Although it is a good idea in certain situations

Of course those are against civil rights, however to give a curfew in order to possibly assist in the apprehension of people who, at other times might not get caught, to be stopped for something minor, have a check run on them quickly and find out that they have a warrant for their arrest. This is almost like saying that cons and ex-cons should have the exact same rights that everyone else does even though by committing an offense they have made any rights that they had forfiet.

Curfews, when applied to individuals, work very well in solving antisocial behaviour. Police brutality and detainment without trial do not.
Thus, the former should be encouraged and the latter two removed.

If someone could comit a crime a night they could do it in the daytime it makes very little difference. If your going to give someone a curfew you might as well give them house arrest.
