Does it make sense to earn my associate's degree in Homeland Security and then go on to earn my bachelors in Criminal Justice Should i just earn both in Criminal Justice?

Depending on what career you want after your done, find out what courses will help you improve your knowledge or skills. I take it you want to become a field agent with a federal agency, so a bachelors in either homeland security or investigation and law enforcement is your best bet. Just talk with the career services adviser before you start. FYI I took homeland security and its all about threat assessments reports and office stuff. I would go into law enforcement and rank up from there.

If deviance is behavior that violates social norms and societal rules, and criminality is behavior that breaks formal criminal laws, should deviant behavior be treated differently than criminal behavior in the criminal justice system?

In general, not always, society's laws and regulations are created to minimize deviant behavior. More specifically we have:

When the deviance is addressed by law and order, it is by definition a crime. And anyone convicted of such behavior is a criminal.

But when it's not addressed by law and order, we only have social pressures (e.g., shaming) to control it. And anyone performing such behavior is not a criminal, but they might become social outcasts.

And finally society might simply ignore the deviance as being harmless, for example, and let it go on. In this latter case, if the deviance persists long enough society might morph into accepting that ignored deviance as a norm and no longer a deviance.

Can you define legal justice?

I feel the two terms should not be used together. "Legal" is based on written law and legal precedence. Justice is a moral and socially defined term that changes with time, culture, etc. A society usually tries to create laws the result in what is considered "justice". Political, economic, and other pressures usually cause laws to be passed that end up making legal and justice mutually exclusive.

Is the law too soft on youth crime?

you must remember that baristers in crown courts can earn over a million pounds a year so if a solution was found and 50 percent of crime went down i dont think that would go down very well with the law society. who dont want to cut such well paid jobs so in some ways i think they respect criminals for paying their high wages and are very lenient on sentances . justice for the victim please and will only happen when you let parents of victims decide sentances
