Summary/Abstract: No society is immune from violence. However, the story of various forms of violence, which, every day, is increasingly taking on the characteristics of social alarming, the drop that overflows the cup and seriously rings at social alarm. That bell presumably has only limited time alarm, while noting that some, and many previous events of violence, some of which are particularly vulnerable to those relating to the actors of minor age and the offender and the victim, as well as the character and circumstances affecting violent (in)actions. The alarming institutions of society, when something happens to go towards staging the public about the need for a fuller definition of domestic legal standards and toughen sanctions for offenders. Stricter sanctioning of any offense in modern society is an institute which resorted to impotent society, which has limited many constraints that whatever action is taken. A society that presents such institutions seems, and that at the moment some form of violence, which has shocked and completely taken aback by social and general environment, seeking an alibi for his (non)involvement in some new legal solutions is, besides being a very uncertain and risky society. In such a society will always find an excuse legal gaps and contradictions for the (non)treatment. A society that feels responsible for its own population can not seek an alibi for the (non) action in cases of domestic legal norms. Or in their disadvantages, be it in a legal vacuum. Being legally prescribed conduct general moral norms which contain basic value criteria a key issue in fighting and preventing all forms of violence is not legally sanctioning, but developing certain cultural and civilizational values that are clearly in the overall social riality completely marginalized. And these values are related to love, respect, dignity and understanding all different. Cases of violence needs to be addressed, and not talk about them and switch (ir)responsibility to (not)or functional (non)existing standard.
