Default Russian President Medvedev introduces bill to castrate pedophiles

http://en.rian.ru/russia/20110712/165154754.html

Quote:
The castration bill, designed to "increase the effectiveness of the prevention of the strikingly brutal crimes" against children, also introduces life sentence as a possible punishment for pedophiles who are repeat offenders.

The bill also stipulates voluntary medical treatment, including chemical castration, for other rapists.

Why not use the old Soviet bullet behind the ear method?

Canada has chemical castrations? First time I've ever heard of that mentioned.

Sounds more humane than castration with a rusty tin can.

Sounds like a good policy to me. Habitual Sexual offenders, especially ones preying on children, deserve to loose their junk, IMO.

Wow, I never thought I would ever think (type this) but Russia seems to be on the right path here. It seems like a more just punishment for rapists etc.

Pretty sure the Russian offenders will still have their "dicks" intact.

Unless you know something new about castration?

Eh? Castration is losing the functionality of your baseballs, whether physically removed or not. What more is there to get?
