SweetLilTT User ID: 25340088 United States 10/14/2013 08:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I like the idea of physically debilitating them sexually, but it still doesn't stop them from having their perverted, twisted and demented thoughts. It won't stop their desire to sexually abuse their victims. I believe every, single one of them should be executed publically. Then, and only then will their behavior be stopped. SweetLilTT |
Little Miss Sunshine User ID: 3495994 United States 10/14/2013 08:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Now this is what I am talking about! .. Not that I think it will solve the pedophilia issue .. but it's a start .. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33270252 The bill would require sex offenders who are over the age of 21 whose victims were 12 or younger to be surgically castrated before being released from prison. Under the bill, the sex offender would be required to finance their own castration. [link to www.wfsb.com] WOOT!! WOOT!!! I like this lawmaker ALOT!!!! Bravo!! Flip em upside down like a hog and off with the nutz!!!! |

Her boss was/is the foremost expert on sex crime in Illinois. In his expert opinion, having counseled with hundreds (perhaps thousands) of sex criminals, he claims their actions rarely stem from a desire to have power or to hurt their victims, but rather it's all about sex. Regarding pedophilia, perpetrators are attracted to children. He believes they can never be "fixed" to only be attracted to adults. So, with that being said, any pedophile released onto the streets will only cease being a perpetrator when his/her ability to act out sexually is taken from him/her. |

Quoting: page8844.5 48250026 True enough. We're too easy on violent criminals. You can not fix them, at least not the twisted ones. They're broken. Make the penalties harsh and you separate the repairable from the broken. What about the 18 yr old that does it up with a 16 yr old hottie that looks like she's 20? Castrate a non-violent person because some backward dipshit wrote a law that goes against the laws of nature? Time to call a spade a spade and to use some common sense. |

The guy knows what he's talking about. And it isn't like it hasn't taken a toll on him. He has dealt with the worst of the fucking worst offenders and hear the worst horror stories imaginable - from both the offenders and perpetrators. The guy regularly has bouts of depression and just goes on hiatus' from reality to cope with the shit he has heard. If the guy says that for the majority of offenders it's about sexual preference, then guess what? It's about sexual preference. What's so hard to believe about that anyway? It's not like he's rooting for them or that he recommends they be given light sentences or some liberal bullshit. He's just stating the facts of years of expertise in a horrible fucking field of work. |

abeliever Members User ID: 46293405 United States 10/14/2013 10:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can Castration Be a Solution for Sex Offenders? By Candace Rondeaux Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, July 5, 2006 James Jenkins wanted to end it. No more fantasies. No more molesting little girls. He knew he was the only one who could stop it; he was just waiting for the right time. The right moment arrived one night nearly three years ago when he was alone in an Accomack County, Va., jail cell. He had spent five years in a Virginia prison for sexually molesting three young girls and another 2 1/2 years for violating his parole. The next morning, a prosecutor was going to ask a judge to commit him to a state facility for high-risk sex offenders. Jenkins could think of only one way out. He asked a jail guard for a razor. He told the guard he wanted to look nice and cleanshaven for his court hearing the next day. The guard hesitated but handed Jenkins the blade. Jenkins walked to the shower in his cell. He bit the blade out of its plastic casing and stuffed an apple in his mouth to muffle his screams. Then he castrated himself and flushed his testicles down the jail cell toilet. Jenkins, 63, doesn't flinch when he talks about it now. "Castration has done precisely what I wanted it to do," he said. "I have not had any sexual urges or desires in over two years. My mind is finally free of the deviant sexual fantasies I used to have about young girls." He spoke with the clinical cool of a surgeon as he tried to explain his pedophilia during a rare interview in a guarded room of the Virginia Center for Behavioral Rehabilitation, the sex offender treatment center where Jenkins was sent. The Petersburg facility is part of a new way the state is trying to keep sex offenders off the streets: Identify the most dangerous before they are released from prison and ask a judge in civil court to commit them to a treatment facility even after they have completed their sentences. Jenkins readily admits that the prospect of being confined indefinitely partly prompted his drastic action three years ago. But he also insists he did it to prevent himself from victimizing another child. "I'm all for castration for certain sex offenders," he said. "I think it would do a lot to prevent recidivism and the amount of money we have to spend on treatment centers like the one I'm in." The issue is less clear to lawmakers and the public. High-profile pedophilia cases prompted a nationwide crackdown last year. And as such shows as NBC Dateline's "To Catch a Predator" illustrate how big the problem is, public outrage has caused lawmakers in Virginia and other states to try to make castration part of the solution for high-risk sex offenders. Eight states allow the use of drugs to castrate sex offenders, including California, Florida and Texas, where surgical castration is also an option. Castration, however, is not a get-out-of-jail-free card. In Florida, for instance, judges are required to order castration for certain repeat offenders. Although many scientists and psychologists agree that castration can dramatically lower sexual drive, there is sharp disagreement about whether it is a cure-all. Virginia officials are not convinced.
