Polish parliament increases penalties for rapists (common sense alert)

Posted on 06/03/2005 1:01:32 PM PDT by Tarkin

The lower house of the Polish parliament (Sejm) almost unanimously increased penalties for rapes and other violent crimes. The new regulations will probably be more severe than in any other EU country. Among the new regulations, the penalties for rape were increased from 1-10 years to 5-25 years. Also brutal murders, committed in "sexual circumstances", will now be punishable with at least 25 years of imprisonment (as oppossed to previous 12 years). Also the courts will now be able to prohibit sexual predators from working with children, even for life. The new law was passed with only one vote against it.

I wonder what the EU is going to say to this "non-humanitarian" regulations.

No, no, no imprisonment? They should be raped too. And than medical experiments. Why testing anti-AIDS drugs on poor animals?

No, they should be inprisoned.

But they should get tattoed on their foreheads the reason of inprisonement before.
Believe me - their inmates would take a special care of them. :-)))

After several weeks they would be far..g without even noticing it.
