Society also needs to set good example of itself as well. There is a reason, as we are getting more aware, we do away with torturious public punishments. You have to focus on bigger picture, take this opportunity to fix the underline cultural and social issues... Violence is not solution to any problem, you don't want to make masses immune to violence. Blasphemy laws and extreme stands by govt/constitutions on religious matters is an example, it has increased violence an encourage mop lynching. Did it solved any problem? - Now Shias are next in line for percussion.
Women empowerment is key not dog and pony show of mass public hanging. You need to take 8/10 years old kids off the street, not just focus on criminals. Women empowerment automatically take cares of population control and brings more prosperity in the society and equality, its win win situation. You have to focus on finding long term cure for Cancer, not on next organ that has failed.
Again these are not sexy measures, but at some point you have to invest and plan for long term, this T20 mentality does not pay off in real work. Real world is like test cricket, where hard work pays off not just talent.
