Zahvaljujem
agree Ljiljana Malovic : ja bih rekla 3 greske (jer su promasaji ipak vezani za sport) I naravno - sasvim lijepo, pod navodnim znacima. Jer se i radi o greskama (ogrijesio se o zakon 3 puta uzastopce)

Je, da ... hvala.
neutral Zrinka Milas : Odgovor Ljiljani: Počiniti prekršaj znači isto, kako Ti kažeš, ogriješiti se o zakon, a to ovdje nije točno.

neutral BUZOV : 'van zakona' u hrvatskom je "IZVAN zakona" ... "La diferance je mala , ali veseli !" - kažu Francuzi i dodaju" ... "Vive la Diferance!!!!" - n'cest pas?

disagree Ljiljana Malovic : za 'burglary'se ne odredjuje dozivotna kazna-NIKADA! Zamislite provalnika koji bi ovaj prevod dobio pod nos - ima srce da ga strefi! Blago receno. Tri saobracajna prekrsaja su isto tako 3 kaz.djela(3 puta kroz crveno,brzinom od 120 km/h,u pjesackoj zoni)

neutral Zrinka Milas : Ljiljana, nije prekršaj isto kao i kazneno djelo!

pravilo uvećanja kazne za višekratne prijestupnike (prijestupnike povratnike)

In 1994 California voters approved a ballot initiative known as "Three Strikes and You're Out." Basically what it means is that people who are convicted of three felonies may end up facing life in prison.
In compliance with subdivision (b) of Section
1385,any person convicted of a serious felony who previously has been
convicted of a serious felony in this state or of any offense
committed in another jurisdiction which includes all of the elements
of any serious felony, shall receive, in addition to the sentence
imposed by the court for the present offense, a five-year enhancement
for each such prior conviction on charges brought and tried
separately. The terms of the present offense and each enhancement
shall run consecutively.
The link below contains detailed information and full text of this this law.

This report documents an analysis of the benefits and costs of California's new "three-strikes" law mandating lengthier sentences for repeat offenders, along with various alternatives to that law.
