We could make them listen to your notions of justice, WU. That's even worse.
Well, y'all could do that. Hereabouts the Eighth Amendment would forbid it.

How should we punish child molestation and rape?

A person under the age of fifteen is not legally old enough to consent. As the OP mentioned, I'm proposing these harsh punishments for only two specific categories of crime:
1. Sex with a person under the age of fifteen.
2. Sexual assault of a person of any age.
Legally in Canada right now, sex with a person under sixteen is illegal too; but given the severity of what I'm proposing, I thought it appropriate to reduce the age to under fifteen for the more severe punishment. Consensual sex with someone under sixteen could be punished as per the present laws.
How so? The US already allows the death penalty. How would giving a person a CHOICE between death, life in prison, and castration, at least one year of therapy, and then release on the recommendation of at least two psychiatrists cruel and unusual? It could even allow a person to greatly reduce the time they'd spend behind bars compared to what is the case now. In some case, the person could be out after a year under my proposal. Again, no one would be forcing castration onto him. It would be a choice if he wants release.
Death would be a choice to. Now as for life in prison, again, I'm not proposing it to be cruel but rather to protect the public. The recidivism rate of released sex offenders without castration is extremely high. I could be open to allowing chemical castration but with no tolerance for messing around. In other words, if a person needs to return for a new implant every three years, he'd better show up on time otherwise he's back in prison. And once back in prison, then the only option left should be surgical castration.
A man who undergoes gonadectomy still has his penis to rape with too. The point is that it stops the production of certain sex hormones that raise the sex drive. As a result, the offender has less interest in raping.
Because death is a day at the beach compared to listening to your sex-obsessed ravings.
They could still rape a person with their penis or vagina, just that they'd have less interest in it. That's the point of castration.
Who forced you to come to this thread?
Charter kills it here too.
You'd best check that out. The age of consent varies considerably from Province to Province.
Precisely. There's all kinds of things you can do voluntarily that are cruel and unusual punishment if done to you by the government.
WU, why don't you just come out in favor of death by slow torture for people who have sex? Your crazy hatred of sex is weird, but this is the internet. As long as you don't make a direct threat, nobody can do anything to you for being weird.
No, I aggregate all your threads on your desire to punish people who have sex, and the picture comes in pretty clear.
Not consensual sex within marriage. Minimal risk of contracting an STI in that case compared to other sexual contexts. Ask an epidemiologist.
Yep, for sex outside marriage, you are one torture-fantasizing psychopath, Father WU. Or is it Pastor WU?
If you mean therapy, I totally agree. Our society does need to become more empathetic to the plight of pedophiles and people who suffer rape fantasies and provide them with greater access to the therapy they need. But we need to make a clear distinction between a pedophile and a molester and between a person with rape fantasies and a rapist. Once the person acts on it, then the focus needs to shift from therapy to deterrence.
I don't even know him.
