> people found guilty of sex crimes against children under the age of 14 will face chemical castration ...
What’s that, pouring lye on his winkie?
That should scare Hell out of some of our politicians!
Do the hot tongs and blunt knife castration.
Although I certainly agree with this punishment in principle, I worry about those falsely accused, as happened in California (just one example), and which could certainly happen in the zero-rights land of Putin.
I like it.
I also like it for rape. Any rape.
Only thing is - make good sure that the accused is actually the perp.
Just like murder - they should be hanged for it, but it’s nice to be real sure.
DNA really does help these days with that kind of thing.
Throw them in prison or execute them.
Castration is nonsense. Perverts and psychopaths don’t even need genitals to get their jollies and hurt kids
I basically agree, but we cannot worry too much, or we become like liberals. Always worried about the 1 person who was innocent while the 99 get to run free and continue their crimes. Because even 5 years of jail is too “mean”.
1st offense.
2nd offense, death.
Sure would be nice.
Why let them out of prison after the first offense, why would anyone think it takes two to get the real punishment is beyond me
I advocate the latter. Prison is quite the drain on national resources.
And yes, castration (presuming not fully emasculated) is no barrier to what an evil mind can conceive to do.
Cut it off.
Actually, Russia has the best prison I ever heard of: The Black Dolphin.
Look it up. We should run OUR prisons like the Black Dolphin.
If we did that, I would be willing to start opposing the death penalty.
I’m not a Putin fan, but imagine if we had a strong leader.
Because mutilation is a major punishment.
It will put the kibosh on 95% of those you worry about. In fact, cutting testicles makes one a “eunuch” and their testosterone production is greatly curtailed. Probably won’t have interest in sex stuff then anyway.
Castration means “cut off”, not snipped. There will be next to no testosterone production. End of issues.
Obama can use his pen and phone and we can have the same thing here!
“Castration is nonsense. Perverts and psychopaths don’t even need genitals to get their jollies and hurt kids”
That is true. Fair trial and hang at dawn.
You bring up a valid point. It could be a child’s word against the adult. But in many cases DNA evidence is irrefutable such as finding semen on the child’s body.
In addition to castration, I would order a large tattoo on the convicted offenders forehead. That will protect other children in future.
