😆Why do you decorate your responses with jabs and insults? You always present a brilliant argument, you really don't need to humiliate someone to get your points across.
The laugh smiley suggests you took it with humour as it was intended, so there was no need for the other stuff you just said. It was true, but also meant in humour.

Anyway, I agree. A world without meat-grinder loving vigilantes would be great. I am not a meat-grinder loving vigilante. But I would prefer the world we live in to be devoid of people capable of raping a baby of 12 weeks. By the way, castrating him would not have to involve removing his genitalia. It would simply remove the option for him to ever have children.
Oh how the sheer overwhelming nature of your act-first strategy astounds me.
On that last line:
How many men in human history have ever got pregnant? Answer: None. So therefore, putting him in prison would stop him having children wouldn't it? Regardless of if the system is good, great, shit or the worst it has ever been, he can't rape kids or have children in prison.
Unless of course you plan to just remove the functionality of his genitalia and release him back onto the streets, in which case he's probably pretty bitter that you "castrated" him and next time might step it up a notch, you know, by murdering a kid instead.
Think about these things Syren, think about these things.

:I've said it before and I'll say it again; would a man capable of raping anyone make a decent father? What about this guy, who raped a 12 week old baby? I highly doubt it.
I've said it...just now, and I'll say it again.
None of this is logical.

I still see nothing wrong with this particular guy being wiped off the face of the planet. I don't care how it's done, I'd just rather not live in the knowledge that his accommodation/food/rehabilitation fees are being paid by the general public until he gets out in a couple of years and is free to do it all again.
The fact of the matter is, the death penalty is useless and hypocritical. The other side is, why do you need to get rid of him entirely? Why not just remove him from society and stop him, oh let's say, committing the crime again? If he gets locked away, your daily life isn't going to be that much worse by knowing he's still alive.
You don't walk the streets now, every day, every second, minute and hour, thinking "Oh for f*ck's sake. Too many criminals everywhere, should be dead." do you? No.
