[QUOTE=Whiplash~;47649719]Why no death penalty? I mean seriously, why not? Sure, we could try reforming him, but is it really worth it? We could use those resources for something worthwhile.
He raped a fucking baby. I don't want these people walking the streets, regardless if they're "reformed" or not. Do you?[/QUOTE]
Doesn't execution actually cost more than it costs to maintain a prisoner?

Only because it goes through like 20 appeals before they finally kill the person.

What's that supposed to mean?
[QUOTE=exhale77;47641780]I really hope we can provide counseling to these types of people.[/QUOTE]
Studies are showing that even with techniques encouraging reform and rehabilitation, sex offenders are still very likely to re-offend. You have a better chance at rehabilitating a murderer than a rapist.
Lock him in a jail cell and trow away the key
[QUOTE=bdd458;47650972]Because the UK has progressed into the modern world and said "Gee, we really shouldn't execute people". And besides, there's no way he is ever walking the streets again, he's going to get life without parole in a maximum security prision.
The US is one of TWO Industrialized Democracies that still has the death penalty, the other being Japan. The only nations to execute more people than the US are China (number is guarded as a state secret, thought to be 1000 people or more), Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. There is absolutely bo reason for the death penalty to exist.[/QUOTE]
"Everyone is doing it, therefore it's right. "
You know, don't any of you feel some sympathy for these offenders? They can't function in society.
The people that end up doing stuff like this are at the fringes of society and suffering, and if they aren't suffering they are sadistic and delusional. Why prolong that?
Psychology is not in the position where we can rehabilitate everyone, and while I wish these people could be experimented on and researched, it just ain't gonna happen.
Again, why value all life? I don't see any of you people who are into protecting life actually talking about anything to improve it so what's the point?
That's what I want to focus on: how can we make this guy's live productive?
