"the Broken Window Theory"

Explain how the Broken Window Theory relates to learning about the law. 

The broken window theory relates to learning about the law because it proves that if things were enforced more, society and its people would think twice in many situations. Take the broken window for example. Someone walks by and throws a rock at a window for no particular reason. After he breaks/cracks the window nothing happens. No adults or officers around, just bystanders. That person just got a way with vandalizing private property. Will he/she do it again? , of course. So will another person and then another. The process goes on with no consequences held on the vandalizer. If the first person was stopped the process could of been avoided. Enforcing even the smaller things can provide a even bigger change which goes back to how the broken window theory relates to learning about the law.
