Bill that requires child molesters be castrated.

[Hathradic States]

And I firmly believe that rehabilitation does no solace to the victim.

To ensure that the predator has never the opportunity to re-offend is grand solace indeed.

True, but even successful rehabilitation leaves the possibility of it happening again.

Castration doesn't prevent this either and is arguably a far less successful "treatment", if it can so be called.

It doesnt change that their kid got messed up

Neither does castration.

You can't "un-rape" or "un-abuse".

I don't believe int he castration of them, you know. I just believe in letting them rot in prison.

No no no. I hate when people bring this kind of shit up. As someone said earlier there is already enough guilt in turning them in. I have both had it happen and been accused, and it destroys your life. Rapists need treatment and rehabilitation. Oh and we shouldn't treat people who admit to having a rape fantasy like a criminal. They need mental help just the same, whether its a boy or girl.

Yay. You can quote Ghandi. Something people have been doing since the traitor died. Please, contribute with something original.

I like the Butner method. They start out in prison, then if they show improvement they switch to a mental hospital.

Chemical castration is okay, I guess, but surgical castration is waaay too far. How bout no.

I like the love method. Instead of going to prison, if they have a demonstrated tendency to hurt others they go to a secure but very comfortable and pleasant facility where they are treated with love and compassion while they are taught why it is that what they did was wrong and how they can avoid doing it in the future, so that they can then go on and get on with their lives.

[Thama]

No... Just... No...

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

How about you just keep them in prison for longer, like, for life. Or beat the shit out of them every day for the rest of their lives. Just don't chop their balls off.

Why give them a better life if they broke the law?

Let them rot for life in a dark cell.

Because I'm interested in treating people as they deserve, and in creating positive outcomes rather than fulfilling barbaric, adolescent revenge fantasies.

They are clearly a problem for society. Locking them away curbs the problem.

These people deserve death for their crimes, but we know killing them would accomplish nothing. So, lock them away.

The love method wouldn't work on people like me. Of course, I've never committed any crimes aside from riding the bike across pedestrian crossings instead of getting off it x3
See, some people would use the Love method to commit crimes and then live in comfort for a while, get out and do it again. Or worse, do crimes to get in the facility, as a reward analog.

What about an offender that is underage when the offence takes place, and the offence only comes to light a decade or so later, such that the offender is then over 21 ?

[New Acardia]

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. There is nothing cruel and unusual about it.

There is nothing cruel and usual about CASTRATING someone?

What about what did to the child ? I am perfectly fine with it .
It does not require a axe to chop the molester's organ off.

That's extremely condescending.

No its not. Wouldn't a rapist use a condom so there is less DNA evidence? Chemical castration is a lifelong punishment for one mistake.

You can eventually recover from being raped, you can't from being castrated.

These people deserve death for their crimes,

No, they don't. Since they can't reasonably be blamed (because they didn't know any better; otherwise they wouldn't have done it, since all people are fundamentally good), they deserve the same love and compassion we give to everyone else.
