Of course, the irony in this particular case is that this was a guy convicted of molesting his nephew, so I've got zero sympathy for him.

But damn, in some states, an 18 year old having sex with a 17 year old girlfried is considered statutory rape. Does that guy deserved to get plugged?

If we locked up the true perverts for life, instead of giving them jail sentences as long as the age of their victims, they wouldn't be at risk.
They'd be safe from vendettas - and kids would be safe - and we'd all be safer if they never got out.

Agreed and that was actually one of the examples I was thinking of. I may believe that an 18 year old and a 17 year old shouldn't be having sex, but that doesn't mean they deserve death. And that doesn't meant that the 18 year old should have to go the rest of his life branded alongside real child molesters.
