To some, being molested is like being given a death sentence.
A part of you dies, and is no more. And it may take years, if ever, to make peace with it.
These people deserve death, because they kill an innocent, whether they leave them alive or not.
They do this because they fear no man, for men willingly will not put them to death for their crime.
This shows they neither understand the crime nor its consequences.
If it were one of my two daughters, I would rather send them to long-term counseling with Focus on the Family or some other conservative, Christian counseling program than straight to the morgue.
I agree with you 100%.
Actually, I would say that, if anything, child molestation is a fate worse than death (such as murder). At least with death, it is over. With child molestation, the victim lives with its horrible consequences (sexual, social, mental, etc.) for the rest of his/her life.
