It's one of the reasons why I'm a little hesitant about putting sex offenders to death so quickly. I'd rather we find out what drives people to do that first. Then, maybe we can find a way prevent that behavior in others so that there are no more victims.
But, how many committees have to appoint how many
committees to find out how much red tape that has to be
cut to find the answer? And, how many people walk free to
commit repeated crimes while the committees are debating
which committees can do certain things to find the answer
to what certain committees can do? It seems like a Catch-22.
Sorry, but I'm on a Committee Rant, tonight!
Committees, breeze? Where'd ya get anything about committees? I didn't say anything about committees.
*scratching head*
And who said anything about people walking free? I didn't say to free them. Keep them locked up - punish them, of course...just wait on putting them to death. Find out what causes that type of behavior by studying known offenders (who won't be on the streets to repeat those same crimes) so that we can stop/prevent others from becoming first-time offenders, thus preventing more children from ever becoming victims. Why just kill the ones who do it and then sit around waiting for another victim to come forward so we can kill the next creep? Why should there be a victim at all? If there was a way to understand where that sick urge comes from and stop it before a person acts upon the urge and becomes an actual offender, then fewer children will be scarred by the trauma of being victims.
As far as red tape is concerned, the justice system has more of it tied around death sentences that have yet to be carried out. Appellate lawyers, not committees, are the problem with that.
LOL@Streetsoldier!
You didn't say committees, Duckie, I did. It seems that
every case of trying to get to the bottom of understanding
someone's type of behavior always becomes a long and
drawn-out process in the current court system. I understand
the actual desired goal in attempting to understand criminal
behavior, but, it seems that this route always seems to
involve appointing someone to appoint behavioral psychologists
and....the list goes on. I tend to think of committees, but,
"groups" (i.e. psychologists, psychiatrists) if you will. Then,
someone has to publish a study, which has to be reviewed...
...you get the picture. I don't for one minute think that
understanding these people's behavior would be a farce, but,
in certain criminal instances, I believe that a quicker punishment
would indeed be necessary!
