In reply to the discussion: India sentences four rapists to death. We should do the same. [View all]cliffordu
(30,994 posts)65. I used to work with street kids.
Every fucking one of them were raped as children. Boys and girls.
As far as I know, none ever made it off the streets or back home.
Fuck rapists in hell. I say put them in the general population of any max security prison.
Not so they will be raped, I am not advocating that for anyone. I never will.
But a trip to the infirmary every three weeks for stab wounds or concussions or severe burns is a great idea.
I understand that during the Arizona prison riots 30 years ago or so, they used an industrial drill on the skulls of sex offenders.
Nice.

The death penalty is medieval and barbaric and an embarrassment to the United States.

Then why are rates of violent crime roughly half what they were 20 years ago?

Only if you want more rapists to murder their victims to eliminate accusations.

Rape hardly ever ends in conviction. What does the DP do to address the actual issue?

We need to take rape - and ALL violent crime - more seriously than we do.
