I am against the death penalty in general and would not endorse it here.
An eye for an eye would reduce the extreme crime rates we have now and return the nation to a society where people respect one another.
Make it more like a head for an eye. With eye for an eye, the wrongdoer is breaking even with their victim. Cost/benefit analysis becomes trivialized when the punishment is extreme.
I absolutely do not support the death penalty for anything short of premeditated murder, which has been proven beyond any trace of doubt. Pedophiles and child rapists are disgusting, but if they don't kill the child, they do not deserve the death penalty. That being said, if it was me, and my child or grandchild, and I caught him in the act, I would shoot on sight. As a juror, though, and an objective, reasonable, non-involved party to the crime, I can't support the death penalty, because justice implies equal measure.
Pedophiles don't get better and they have devastated a child's life not to mention devastating the entire family. Rapist have violated a womans rights in the most despicable fashion possible and scarred her for life. The impact of these crimes on children, their parents and women are so grievous that IMO the perpetrates should get the death penalty. Not only would this be justice but the incidents of rape and child molesting-rape would plummet.
and you just condemn almost every victim of rape to death since the rapist has absolutely no reason to keep his victim(s) alive
Pedophilia is not a learned behavior any more than being straight, gay or lesbian is a learned behavior. It is obviously NOT conducted between consenting adults. These people are monstrous in their desires and in their actions. Their actions need to be stopped and the best way to assure that they are stopped and do not repeat is to eliminate them from society.
Should they also receive a cash reward? Or just rewarded with never have to work another day in their life and be entirely provided for - for free - in everyway - for the rest of their lives?
I realize those things, however killing someone who has not killed, is not justice.
Along the same line as the debate on whether or not a straight, gay or lesbian is pre wired to enjoy their preferred orientation, the pedophile is also pre-wired.
They are are an obvious danger to our children, much more so than any other stylish defined danger of today like a soft drink, and need to be eliminated.
What are the great and dynamic contributions to society by pedophiles? What justifies their existence within society? Why pay a life time of room and board to assure they eventually get released to create more mischief?
The damage done to a child is often quite worse than death, as they have to deal with it their whole lives. Kill the sick bastards that do it, one shot, one kill, no other children harmed by them.

Duels are for equals. Capitol ofenders are beneath me.If you say so.
You feel that someone does not deserve to live? Fine. Challenge him. Swords out, a duel, as it was supposed to be for some 99% of human history! No? Hiding behind the broad back of the dumb, clumsy State golem is more to your liking?
Feels good, to risk nothing and be all righteous about it, eh?
I truly believe that physical or chemical castration is the way to go.
No future possiblity (via rape or consensual) of repeat acts (though one can rape by other means, agreed) nor personal pleasure for themselves.
Let them live with that.

Believe it or not, I'm not here to impress you.
The idea is only rarely expressed in such strong or overt terms, but the belief that rape (in its most common and ordinary form) is an existential horror of such magnitude that it is almost impossible to recover from and must (almost necessarily) ruin the victim's life is always scratching the surface of our culture's collective thinking. Often it bubbles over in some expression or another. It compares unfavorably to that trend in India where women become suicidal because they were seen naked.
At this point in human history we ought to have more pragmatic attitudes about sex and how it relates to a person's self-respect. Assuming that we don't want to revive indentured servitude or make fines or public shaming a larger part of our justice system, the multiple-year terms of imprisonment is about where the punishment needs to be.
Wow....it's just that, it's not the dark ages anymore. I think the times for dungeons and torture and maiming inmates is perchance over.

Oh right, I forgot that coddling rapists is the new way to go.
And locking them in a giant institutionalized man-rape dungeon at tax payers' expense for the rest of their natural lives is any better?
Please lop my head off instead. I'm begging you! :lol:

Perhaps the word chemical escaped your notice?
For people that commit these acts, torture is still a viable word for them, since they choose to commit the acts that is truly torture for it's victims.
