And I for one think that the probative and rehabilitative values of a prison sentence don't rise to the level of the crime when dealing with rape and molestation.
Death or castration. Not for punishment, not for rehab, for public safety. -----Original Message----- From: Judah McAuley [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2009 12:21 AM To: cf-community Subject: Re: Marines crush a car in Iraq who's owner was apparently looting old wood. As a person who is frequently termed a liberal, I can succinctly say that you are full of shit there Scott. Just because you understand something and want to make it better does not mean that you have to excuse it. I was sexually abused as a child. That is a horrible thing and I appreciate it when other people understand how that colors my reactions to certain things. If I were ever to sexually abuse my daughter I would hope that my wife was the one throwing me in jail. In fact, we've had that discussion and she's agreed to do it.
