People who propose and endorse these types of laws do not care about protecting women or kids. They are nothing more than sadists who get off on the feeling of moral superiority that comes with punishing others. This country's sick fetishization of death, castration, incarceration, police brutality, and other forms of institutionalized torture and abuse is an indicator of a society in steep decline into utter depravity. Be ashamed.
No, it’s just that castration has been proven to be a very effective way of rehabilitating sex offenders, allowing them to participate in society while not harming others.
And killing convicts is a great way to decrease recidivism. Any authoritarian craziness can be justified from the most narrow results-oriented analysis.
