Moderata Samlingspartiet	0	No	Moderata Samlingspartiet står bakom hårdare tag mot brott, men detta paket går för långt. Vi säger ja till starkare polis och skärpta straff, men nej till militär beväpning, nolltolerans, automatiska livstidsstraff och kroppsstraff i skolan. Rättssäkerhet måste värnas.
