A: They escape
B: People still commit crimes regardless of the punishment
C: Prison wastes money
Rather than lock people up, why not give them a job, an aweful job like mining. Good for the economy is it not? Oh and what about giving them education? Gives them something fun for them to do.
Yes that would be nice (NOT) - the girl who was being raped the day before can then meet the raptist the day after because he got this awful job (mining) as punishment.
No put them in jail or a place where they can do no harm.
They have the option of getting an education and they do have to do work while in prison. All while being withheld from the public so they don't hurt or kill or rape anyone else.
As well as the point that we can't always be sure that the rapist is actually the perpetrator, I think castration qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment.
I'd be all for it if we knew for certain that the guy was guilty
There is something that can done to serial rapists who "can't control their urges" - it is basically chemical castration as it (supposadly) suppresses sexual urges on their part, without any physicaly permanant surgery being done.

Actually castrating someone would not stop them from committing the violent act in another way, but YES cutting their hands off would.....Food for thought.
i think that rapists should receive life sentences.

Prisoners already need to work, and after work they are put back in their cell away from the public. What do you expect all criminals to just come to work everyday, mine their asses of then go home and not rape anybody?
No way in hell that a system like that would work.
really. lets just give them a crappy job, that'll show them.
