Topic: The best way to fight insecurity in our society - page 2. (Read 632 times)

I do not see purging or eradicating insecurities as the work of the government because at the end of the day it is still the common man that is responsible for the insecurities.

Fighting each other, stealing from his fellow common man, kidnapping his fellow common man and many others. All of these aren't done or sponsored by the government but GREED. As a matter of fact the government has little contributions to insecurity. Humans have refused to work but become bent on hunting and hurting his fellow man for survival.

Many insecurity problem thst will have in the world today is as a result of the government not doing the right thing, not giving the people what they deserve. Insecurities is commonly find in developed countries where the government is not giving equal right to the people, the common citizens can pick offense by getting arms to fight the government  and this will cause a serious challenge for the government that won't be easy for them to handle.

There will be always aggressive countries bullying other countries for different reasons and then playing the victims role in the end, once they are supressed. These countries create insecurity for the whole world, and as consequence, another countries have to become defensive on this matter, and invest economical and human resources in securities as well.

I don't think it's a waste. It's a necessary measure to keep the world relatively safe from terrorists, dictators and sociopaths. I say relatively safe, because threats are always present, so I think to keep the world balanced, at least, would be a more appropriate concept, since that is the current scenario we live in the world, where its splitted in two, and both sides are potentially harmful to each other.

Personally, I don't think it's possible to live without investing in securities, even in our private life that is something we have to worry about. That is why we close the doors and windows of our houses, install security cameras, lock up our vehicles, pay attention to who is surrouding us on the streets and not boast money, cellphones and jewels everywhere.

To dream about a perfect world doesn't make it a perfect world for real. You have to be aware this is a wicked world, acting accordingly to its reality to protect your physical integrity.

OP you sound funny thinking that giving everybody equal right would solve shit, it has already been done even if we know that at times bribery and corruption takes place and displaces the power of the law, the law is fixed, lawfully every person has equal right rich or poor.

From my above text clearly the root of insecurity is human factor, no matter what the government does they can't stop criminals from beign criminals, I watched a video  of a serial killer tha was beign tried, they asked him why he was killing people, guess what he said to them that can't stand and act as if he is the only murder in the room, he went on and said that everybody is one act away from obeying the prompting of a murderous thought to kill someone.

Yes he is a serial killer but he is right in a way, the problem of the world can not be blamed on the government or the law, the only solution is if everone would be a law upon himself and learn to lead themselves in doing the right thing.

In order to fight insecurity in our society, there are a number of approaches that can be taken. One is to improve law enforcement and security measures. This includes increasing the number of police officers, improving training and equipment, and increasing coordination between law enforcement agencies. It also includes creating partnerships with the community and improving communication between law enforcement and the public. Additionally, it is important to address the root causes of insecurity, such as poverty, inequality, and unemployment. By addressing these issues, we can help to prevent crime and insecurity from occurring in the first place. Finally, we must work to improve education, healthcare, and other social services..

Another important approach to reducing insecurity is to promote social cohesion and community building. This can be done by strengthening community institutions such as schools, churches, and community centers. These institutions can provide a safe space for people to gather and build trust with each other. In addition, promoting civic engagement and volunteerism can help to strengthen social cohesion. By giving people a sense of ownership over their community, we can reduce insecurity and improve the quality of life for everyone. Finally, it is important to ensure that everyone has access to basic necessities, such as food, water, and shelter. Without these basic needs, people are more likely to feel insecure..

1. Realize that you are going to die; could happen any moment.
2. Read Ecclesiastes in the Bible - in the Old Testament.
3. Read the Gospel books in the Bible - first 4 in the New Testament.
4. Understand that Jesus will raise you from the dead at the last day.
5. Pray to God for strength in believing in Jesus.
6. Spread this info to everybody.

The worse the economy, the more insecurity in that state. Insecurity cannot be completely eradicated, but it can be reduced to a minimum and a very good way of doing that is by having a working economy. An economy where people have work and their hard work pays. An economy where it is relatively easier to do business.
When an economy is working, people won't be jobless. It's joblessness that pushes a lot of people into joining violent factions because they want to take their grievances, anger, and pain out on somebody and since they can't do it to the people responsible, it's the innocents that suffer for this.

The problem is, that most countries want to solve the issue of insecurity from the top instead of going back to the foundation.
What kind of education do these people have? How easy are they to manipulate? How can they think for themselves?
To me, these are questions that governments of countries with very high insecurity should be asking and looking for answers and solutions to.
Poverty, ignorance, and illiteracy are factors that should be handled if any country wants to deal with insecurity.

The best way to fight insecurity in our country is many and the government knows the ways, just that bribe and corruption has taken over,my dear insecurity in our country didn't just come, something must have lead to it,it can be cause by discrimination, unemployment, inequality, and All this can be settled, so what the government needs to do is to find out what is the cause of it and stop it,even sometime the will be the one who is sponsoring the insecurity and because of their selfish interests and would not want to end it..
So the best way to fight insecurity is by unity ourselves and have one ideology and work in unity and stop about instiment..

Si vis pacem, para bellum ("If you desire peace, prepare for war"). I think this proverb is still relevant today and is used by several countries to achieve peace. I think it is impossible to eliminate insecurity, even developed countries with the number one GDP in the world are now also facing this problem. and this problem seems to occur all over the world, even in countries that are categorized as the safest. Maybe the economy and employment opportunities are directly proportional to reducing crime, but I think it only reduces, not eliminates.

Yes, dialog is the best way for any government to overcome the insecurity that is affecting the people around their various places because through the dialog you will discovered so many things that is happening in the country that you are not aware as a president in that particular country.

I guess many government officials are now using insecurity to enrich themselves in some countries because, anytime I open my television to listen to some international news, I will be seeing some people be killed by unknown gun men and the government officials will not bring such people to judgement.

War isn't about insecurity, it's about territorial disputes and that's why we've seen that a lot in the ancient times and even until today, there are still wars that have been on going and upcoming which we're always the losers on these wars made by the world leaders. If it's not war with the land and territory matters, it's about the war on the economic method that they're shrinking a country's economy through sanctions. No war is going to solve any problem because at the end of it, what happens? Someone has to truce or they both agree to any agreement that they will set.

See the sense? They don't have to go into war and they just talk and have an agreement and have it civil. But instead, they're wasting both resources and tons of innocent lives and people who'd say that they're willing to die for their country while their leaders are on their offices watching and waiting for their reports. If bilateral talks can solve these matters, then it only means that they can have that talk and have a peace instead of going on to war. Because it's always us, the innocent people that are stuck in the midst of it and the real victim here.

It is true, it will be very difficult to totally eradicate insecurities from the face of the Earth. But a government of a country can reduce the impact of the insecurities on its people, properties and the economy by creating jobs for the jobless youths and also ensure that essential amenities such as water, hospitals, good roads, electricities etc are in place.

Insecurities can never be eradicated as there would always be some or the other issues and there will always be people who will have different views than what the government's policies which will sow insecurity but all the government can do is to plan how they are going to curb homelessness, huger and unemployment because these are the key cause of insecurities because it arises when we realize there are basic fundamentals lacking our system. We can take jobs as an example as there re lot of youths with qualified degrees but they don't have relevant jobs in the market. If government can solve the issues of jobs, shelter and hunger then it would be a much better place but it requires a combined effort from government and the citizens.

Insecurity seems to be constantly increasing.  The financial situation i.e. inflation, rising prices of everything, reluctance of the youth to work, everything seems to increase the uncertainty several times.  Government plays the most important role in removing the uncertainty of the society.  Government should ensure 100% security of people of a country.  If the government fails in that then every citizen of that country will suffer from uncertainty.  No one wants to live an uncertain life.  Job aversion of the youth and lack of employment after graduation is the biggest problem and uncertainty for a society.  Moreover, life security, food security, social security should all be looked after by the government.

I don’t think there is any government that can totally eradicate insecurity problems in a society, that’s just not possible. It doesn’t matter the number of personnels or technology you put in place, humans when pushed to a breaking point, they tend to lash out.
Even so, there are those that don’t need to be pushed but simply seek out opportunities to do harm just because, it’s in there nature, it’s what they crave for and amuses them which is bad.

Insecurity is a huge problem in our modern day society, where everyone wants what you’ve got and it becomes a case of finding means to get it.
War is never a solution to insecurity. War simply puts the secure in a number of insecurity problems rather than solve it. You become homeless, no proper access to food and amenities, lack of job, lack of adequate water, people living in fear over everything and this can create more issues to the existing insecurity problems.
It’s an out of the frying pan and into the fire situation.

Exactly my thoughts and it’s the truth. Everyone can’t be good. Even thought the government gives money to everyone, there’ll be people who will want to take away other people’s money hence the same insecurity we thought money would solve. Some people just enjoy being the bad guy even in the movies, don’t we see how happy villains are to do what they do? A government that is always ready to fight insecurity is good. Though there are places where insecurity is less, it can’t be 0%.

This all starts with our leaders, are they willing not to continue with the sponsors on the increasing social vices in the society, are they ready to discipline themselves from the top and deal with every perpetrates of social misconducts even amidst themselves, after this is achieved, we can now go down to the people in the society and introduce the same sanity on them that everyone should learn and know what may constitutes the way they are expected to live.

the war that is currently raging has really devastated the economies of many countries in the world, starting from the inflation that continues to occur and also the mounting national debt, but do young people have to surrender to the situation, of course not, young people should be more creative than old people nowadays, there are many opportunities that can be obtained, don't just try to wait for the government to create jobs, it's better to create jobs yourself.

i have seen many young people who are successful with the businesses they founded themselves, even though it is hard, everyone has to fight for themselves, don't be lazy, get up from your bed now.

No doubt about the fact that economic sustainability can help improve security in a society, but one thing you must understand is the fact that, some of these insecurity issues are not just because of economic situations especially when it comes to terrorism, they are politically sponsored in a bid to create a chaotic situation where government can vote in more money to security sector or department and make it look as if they are buying ammunitions or putting more money into the security department in a bit to improve on security, whereas they collect this money back as kickback. So sometimes don't always look at it at the surface level, it is a bottle neck of corruption that is hidden under insecurity.

Social justice is an idea that will reduce the level of insecurity. I won't be saying insecurity will be gone totally because certain individuals will always create chaos in the society but larger number of people are conformers. Those who don't conform are the mafias, the rebels that causes nuisances in the society. So to have an equitable distribution of resources and welfare for all will be a resolution to insecurity threats. Creating employment employment opportunities for the youth reduces struggle for freedom and agitation for change of government.
