WHO is downvoting you???
People like me, who are against the death penalty on principle. (or even more "creative" forms of punishment people like to come up with in these cases).
No, prison is where this guy belongs. For as long as necessary.
Further to this its not likely to result in less children being abused.
If you have the death penalty for even possessing CSAM as the parent suggests, then there is no incentive to not get into distribution or even actively abusing children and producing CSAM once you posess some. The punishment isnt any worse so why not? Its the same reason for proportionality in other crimes, we dont punish robbing a bank with life in jail as then there would be no reason for anyone who robs a bank to not just murder everyone to leave no witnessess.
And if you propose the death penalty for abusing children, a child abuser has incentive to kill the child afterwards to get rid of the witness.
The punishment can't get any worse, and it reduces the chance of getting caught.
Death penalty is fine if it didn't get abused bit it will be abused. We know this. So yes i agree with you.
But also if cop killed him and there is adequate evidence that athat person actually hurt a child. I just see self defense and if I was no a jury, I would not convict and I hate police lol
Society lost this basic function for self cleansing. At some point these people just need to be disposed off.
Also, state will execute for treason. I look at severe child abuse as a higher order, ie social treason. FAFO
Oh, I was thinking something far worst than death. I was thinking something like a torture rack.
So you're a sadist, but you try to convince yourself it's okay because you only want to torture people you think deserve it. Of course, no one deserves to be tortured.
That's what I meant by more creative forms of punishment.
