So what is the point, if they're unlikely to ever get out? Wouldn't it be better to say that a second time offender for serious sexual offences gets life without parole?
Because I don't get the point of castrating people that are already gonna spend the rest of their life in jail.
Or are you guys arguing that we use castration as an alternative to prison? And then what happens when castration doesn't work? When the guy who's been castrated isn't "cured" and rapes someone else? Only then do we stick him in jail for ever?
Think about it. Everything is about cost/effectiveness. These guys are proposing a castration programme, from the second offence, without reducing the prison term. What is the point?
