[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2335200, member: 18914"] If we (civil society) want to have child molestors (or rapists, or murderers, or drug dealers or any other criminals for that matter) suffer the death penalty, fine, that is one debate. The real issue is - isn't it our responsibility to have the moral courage to implement and execute (no pun intended) the policy deliberately and not to be squeamish about getting our collective hands dirty and then leave it to unlawful, violent and capricious men and their actions? I know that if a particularly distasteful criminal is killed in prison we tend to say "He deserved it", and perhaps he did, but we - society - did not win, we lost because of how we let it happen. That is my point. Frankly, its the second time I've made it in this thread so I guess I have reached a point of diminishing returns. Overall good discussion though. [/QUOTE]
