Honestly, I posted my suggestion about guns before I noticed your tagline. Once I saw your tagline, I figured I was probably preaching to the choir, LOL.
One would need to get the testicles first and foremost. And no guarantee even then in many cases. Habits die hard. But the horemonal energy for it would be gone.
Pretty evil stuff on several levels.
I don't recall the stats but the percentages with absolutely no evidence of continuing ideation even etc. are very small.
And acting out on the ideation seems to be a matter of time until the opportunity is created or presents itself again. Period. Pretty awful contingencies for kids nearby.
My answer was my #17...but no one liked it.
I'm all for 2nd chances and in many cases 10th and 20th chances.
But not with kids sexual abuse. All the more so for the more serious types of it. There is a range.
I don't know how to filter out the rather rare ones who've genuinely changed. Especially in our crazy society. It's a real challenge. A young shrink could make a name for himself doing it reliably.
You're confusing two very different kinds of sickness.
Can set off a police alarm if he gets near any known kid areas, homes.
He certainly would.
I could agree with that.
Perhaps cleaning garbage trucks for food?
I consider these people to be mentally sick..if the terminology is incorrect, I apologise.
Wouldn't all the kids homes require a detecting device? Who would pay for them, and how far from his house should they be placed..1 block, 5 blocks, 2 miles?
No, the software at the police station or wherever the base is takes care of it. As I understand it--outline on the relevant maps where the OK lines are and what lines are forbidden to be crossed.
However many seconds the ankle bracelet checks in via satellite the system checks that often against the criteria for allowed roaming--in the house or out or what. If he's across the line, an alarm goes off for the duty officer to respond to immediately.
I have a real problem with that line of thinking. Molesting children is a perversion, not a mental illness. Although some mentally ill people may be inclined to want to molest children because of their illness, being a child molestor doesn't make you mentally ill.
Sounds workable, except for the ones that are lured to him, but that is probably rare.
OK
A lot of them seem to have a brilliant sociopathic capacity to lure; set traps; just appear; stalk--whatever it takes to get their sick 'jollies.'
That's one of the reasons I think something creative needs to be done--and the most sensible to me is the group home/farm thing with some suitable work and strict boundaries.
The recividism rate for these evildoers is damn near 100% (I've heard law enforcement officers make some gallows-humor remarks to the effect of child molestors being "Six Sigma-compliant," because they are 99.9999% likely to re-offend).
I prefer execution, myself. Saves money on warehousing the worthless f***s.
It's not "brilliant," it's an adult going after a not-fully-developed child.
I prefer just shooting the sickos and being done with them.
Devious would probably have been a better word than brilliant.
However, their capacity to think up endless ways to evade and perpetrate some would class as above 120 IQ.
But, yeah. Evil is terminally dumb in a list of ways.
And, terminating evil is a good thing.
The Blood of Jesus and becoming like Him is the only thing I know that does that well.
Hell just warehouses it.
How would it be funded, fed or state?
