'If you can't do the time, don't do the crime' nghĩa là đừng cư xử không đứng đắn, ăn ở bậy bạ nếu bạn không sẵn sàng chấp nhận hình phạt (do not misbehave if you are unprepared or unwilling to accept the punishment).
Ví dụ
Giving Elliott a pass certainly does set a precedent. Rather, it continues a very poor precedent of not handing down proper punishment for offenders. If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime on the field or off.
They say 'if you can't do the time don't do the crime' but the 'time' can be tougher that lags might imagine in some of the world's most brutal prisons. From tiny dark cells with buckets for toilets to brutal violence and a existence deprived of daylight some prisons are hell on earth.
Sen. Sessions has often repeated the adage (châm ngôn, ngạn ngữ), “If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.” And he is right—in a society built on law and order, those who commit crimes must expect to be held accountable. But that accountability must uphold human dignity by staying in due proportion to the harm done, and it must not ultimately cause even greater harm to the community.
