Judges? Lawyers? courts? I've got a high caliber solution that costs less than $.50 and takes less than a second. Plus there are no repeat offenders, they don't even think bad thoughts after the treatment or ever embarrass their families again.

Put them all up in Hotel Gitmo!

[GeronL]

they should never see the light of day, why do they keep letting them out?

[MarineBrat]

Survey says.... death! I'd do it myself if they'd let me!

[LuxMaker]

Judges should be answerable to the voters.

I always vote no on keeping them around.

[Does so]

"...In a public library? WTH...?!"

A friend is a librarian in Plymouth, MA.

She doesn't care for the union's policies on library pornography, but has never restricted its being presented openly on computer screens. They've called the cops on some perverts, (men in big coats) but no arrests have resulted.

[Does so]

"...Because they are appointed and not elected..."

We had an elected judge in Miami, Florida, who sometimes dismissed cases mid-trial. The defendants were always your usual suspects—plus some drug dealers. Judge Sepe was prosecuted in the FBI's "Operation Court Broom", but promptly ran again!

[OldTCS]

I wonder how he survived long enough to make it to court?

Don’t judge them, that’s God’s job. Just expedite the meeting!

[Gondring]

I know of two cases where many lax punishments ceased immediately, and both were when a judge was the victim. Untuil then, it’s fine to catch-and-release.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. — A convicted sex offender pleaded guilty Monday to raping a 6-year-old boy at a Massachusetts public library last year while he was on probation.

I'm disappointed in the mother. Even in MA, he should not have survived long enough for the police to arrive. I'm disappointed in the police. Even in MA, he should not have been shot and killed when he tried to grab the officer's gun during the arrest. I'm not disappointed in the judge. As a MA judge once told me, "there's no point in sending them to jail; they just come out worse". Society needs to stop these people before they come in front of judges like this "man".

[MathDoc]

Even in MA, he should not have survived long enough for the police to arrive. I'm disappointed in the police.

Oops, that "not" should not be there.

Normal people would hand the parents a gun

You’d be sickened by what goes on in a public library. I work in one in a large Northeast Ohio city. Entertainment DVDs are checked out more than books. We have sex manuals, soft-core porn and dope smoking handbooks in our circulating collection. This is in a neighborhood branch, not even the main branch downtown! There is almost no secuity and it’s mostly a free recreation center and not what a library is intended to be. This is a dreadful incident to happen to the child but notice that the article said the mother was using a computer. I see that all the time; the kids are ignored. I’ve seen babies left in their strollers, crying their eyes out, while the moms sit next to them, eyes glued to the computer. The staff says and does nothing. Political correctness and liberalism dominate. There is an unspoken rule not to offend the patrons because they will register and vote in favor of the next funding levy. The sad fact about that is that most of the patrons live in public or low-rent housing and won’t be contributing to the tax base anyway. I don’t ever see the situation ever changing.

This guy must be getting ready to start his campaign for federal office. This behavior is always a well-known resume builder for democratic candidates.

[Two-Face]

This is sick, sick, sick. We need to stop keeping these pervs in our taxpayer funded prisons. While God can save, them they need to die. No one who does this should live.

[Two-Face]

There is no way to rehabilitate a pervert

Agreed. Bullets are cheap (until they are taxed), rope is cheap, and hey, an ax is reusable! If they come to Christ that is good, but they still need to die.

[XR7]

We need to stop keeping these pervs in our taxpayer funded prisons.

We don't anyway.
Problem is, we won't keep 'em out of the public libraries.

[Diogenesis]

Deval Patrick welcomed, encouraged all "eloquent rapists" to come to Massachusetts.

What better place to appear eloquent, than a library?

Hey now! It’s hard for some people to find romantic partners they can relate to as intellectual equals.
