You can't rely on the threat of prison as a means of handling the majority of crime generated by our misled youth because prison doesn't currently appear as a consequence to them (I should know, I once thought like them).
A lot of our youth come from dysfunctional homes. When you're traumatized and feel you have NOTHING to lose, because you have nothing, prison appears to solve a lot of problems to those lost, including food, clothing, shelter, health care, etc.
So stop with the law enforcement and judicial system talk. Focus on addressing traumas, families, and quality of life.
CLAIM IT & POWER UP!
