Next bill up for vote: Cutting off hands of shoplifters, and cutting children in half for parents fighting a custody battle.
So we can assume they will start with rooting out all the pedophile clergy, yes? No more “transfers” from one small town to the next set of vulnerable rubes?
In most of the southern states, having sex with children is legal if you marry them first. (And minors can’t file for divorce!)
That’s sick and disgusting.
And what about female offenders?
If anything, castrating a sex offender makes it _easier _ for him to commit offences.
Far less DNA evidence plus the relative ease of cis men getting testosterone and erectile dysfunction pills.
Wow cool so I guess we’re gonna get to see what Christian-flavored sharia religious laws look like in the states. Are we gonna get an all-America version of the morality police too?
Rape is about power, not sex. Why is this being discussed?
I might be okay with castration for violent rape. The problem is when it’s considered a sex crime for an 18 year old to have sex with a 17 year old. And a lot of other things are branded as sex crimes that shouldn’t be. And Republicans want to make it a sex crime to be gay or transgender
Bad idea, there are a lot of false convictions. If you wrongly get catsrated that is it.
Besides all the points everyone else has mentioned:
“Even if just one rapist changes his mind about raping a child, I will take that.”
Always be skeptical anytime anyone uses an argument of this form. There are tradeoffs for everything, but this phrasing only serves to stop people from weighing them fairly.
Oh, and the above quote comes from the co-sponser of the bill, who is a Democrat. Just in case you thought this was a Republican problem.
Maybe they can study all the balls and clits to figure once and for all how to make our sex organs much much bigger naturally.
