Castration doesn't stop sexual desire...It simply takes away your means to fufill those desires.  And those very people will anguish because of it.  No easy way out there.

There is the Eighth Ammendment. And numbing someone's sexual drive is a little cruel and unusual.

...No one debated that.  I was stating that it should be.

Around here the death penalty has been pretty much abolished. Though I think that it still is used for acts of treason, but I don't think that's been commited for centuries.

Wait, what?

They're saying that castration should be a punishment for violating children.

Here's a question for those who say that two wrongs don't make a right.

Wouldn't locking somebody up for the rest of their life and controlling their life from what they eat to how they sleep to when they shower count as wrong?

Well, prison is used for rehabilitation for most criminals.

I don't think that's the case for a life sentence...

"Great, when will I get out?"

"You won't"
