Should men found guilty of sex crimes be chemically castrated?
Many people consider sexual abuse one of the worst crimes a person can commit. In these circumstances, it has been proposed by some that such an offender should be punished, normally in addition to a jail term, by castration. Castration is the removal of the sex glands, and is normally defined in this kind of debate as a chemical process, using hormones to render them impotent. What is to be counted as a sufficiently serious âsex crimeâ, the type of castration to be used, and the circumstance under which it would operate all need to be defined by the proposition.
Opinions?
Oh-- And to Nebulous- Don't just say they deserve death
Because although they might, not all will get it!
