Rehabilitation doesn't have to go as far as letting them back out. There are different kinds of conditions, of ability to communicate with the outside world, to work etc. One might even make special isolated settlements where people live almost as if they were free, but can't escape.

Why bother with all that when it only benefits child molesters? They should be happy with the fact that our justice system is flawed enough that we can't just execute them like they deserve. There are valuable members of society those resources could be directed towards.

I don't think we'll understand each other.

Advocate for people who deserve it if your goal is to be understood.

[–] vacuumflower@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's far more harmful to allow people, especially people like you, decide who deserves what. So no, all my points stand.

How exactly do you think these things are decided currently if not by people?

[–] vacuumflower@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 days ago

They don't have to be decided at all. That's why it's smart to avoid them.
