Greenman, probably: "No one is forcing you to hand over your money to the mugger. You could just choose to get shot."
I didn't realize that fucking a child and getting mugged had any correlation at all.
You fellows are welcome to bemoan the terrible consequences of child abuse, I'll continue to support the harsh penalties for the perps.

It's to illustrate the "freedom of choice" - a concept you seem to be unable to grasp, seeing as how you seem to believe it exists when someone either chooses a medical procedure or gets 3-5 extra years in prison. A choice made under duress is not a free choice. You cannot ethically perform medical procedures on people without informed consent. It has nothing to do with what they might have done or might do in the future.

If you're afraid someone is going to be unable to help themselves after being let out of prison, there are other ways to protect society without resorting to unethical mutilation: lengthen the prison term, involuntary commitment to a facility.

Never mind the door that this opens: today, it's very despicable people (eg, child rapists); tomorrow, what other "sex crimes" will Louisiana add to the list? Maybe they'll bring back anti-sodomy laws, and subject gay people that are caught to these punishments. Or just the gross notion that Louisiana is opening the door back up to eugenics. It's easy to call for harsh punishments of extremely despicable people - but the state and local prosecutors always seem to expand the cases that these harsh penalties apply to, and legislation has a way of tacking stuff on instead of paring stuff back.

The law, as written, targets offenders found guilty of aggravated sex crimes, including rape, incest or molestation against a child under 13. The punishment would be brought in certain cases and at a judge’s discretion and the surgery would be completed by a physician. It will also require a court-appointed medical expert to determine whether the offender is the right candidate for the surgery.

An offender could refuse to get the surgery, but would then be sentenced to three to five years of an additional prison sentence without the possibility of getting out early.

The law doesn’t allow anyone under 17 found guilty of certain aggravated sex crimes to receive the punishment.

I don't think I have any problem at all with this. Fuck a child under 13, lose your nuts, or do an extra 3 to 5 years.
Wish you were this well-informed on more important topics.

You can continue to "support harsh penalties" while still operating within the confines of our laws and code of conduct/ethics.

Works for me. Lets make the minimum sentence for a conviction 25 years with no possibility of parole. I'd be good with that.

This and have every article of clothing they wear printed with "I raped a # year old child. Then leave them in general population.

IMO discussions like this ought to involve one's first response to an 'opposing' opinion being: Do you believe that the justice system should primarily serve to reform people?

If the answer is no, then agree to disagree and move on. Otherwise all you're going to be doing is arguing with a person who fantasizes about punishing (in this case maiming) people, because there is no basis for discussion, especially with people who think that opposing opinions to theirs are the result of groupthink / a woke conspiracy.

Its probably more like "well children can't be raped because they can't consent to say no."

How about this, this is the punishment if you're a Christian that does sex crimes, including looking at porn.

Better yet exile them to Mississippi a state even worse than Louisiana.

I don't know, Louisiana is literally America's urethra, or diarrhea hole since its how the Mississippi River dumps its shit. Which, I mean, we named it Mississippi River, not Louisiana despite it actually going right through the latter. Also, did you see how much we bought Lousiana for? They had to throw in like 1/6 of an entire continent even at that price.

Thats a weird line to have... public slow execution would serve as a warning too.
Torture is never the answer, even for a predator that targets children. There are people that should be put down, but since it's a certainty that mistakes will be made, or evidence fabricated because of anger and hate, we can't take that chance. Incarceration is the only semi reversible punishment.

Vesting power in the state to coerce people into being mutilated doesn't sound like an inherently conservative position but the same people love the death penalty so we're really just talking about a revenge fetish here not justice.
What would the Taliban or ISIS do?
Then you know the heart of a conservative and can guess their next policy position.

I watched a documentary years ago where prisoners' were opting to be chemically castrated as part of a study.
They actually preferred it, the serial predators said under the treatment their lives were better as they were no longer 'driven' the one guy said every hour everyday he had predatory thoughts.
While in the program he said the thoughts disappeared for the most part and when they did occur every few months they were easily suppressed by will.
Potentially then it could be a win for the state and the individual. I don't know how many would choose to opt for it however these predators are suffering too within their own minds, and they might want the peace that could come from it.
