No they don't, just as Republicans don't beget Republicans! Thank God!
Depends on the offense! If it is a garbage one like driving without a license, or illegally being under a bridge in a box, or most other non-violent crimes, I can't see the rationale to send someone to jail for the rest of their lives!
Many "crimes" are committed by the young, and it does not continue in middle age! I'd hate to take a kid's life away from him if he is stupid but represents no real risk to the public!
If you are talking about sex crimes, which you didn't spell out, a true fixated pedophile is sexually attracted to children, the sex of the child is not important, are going to re offend again and again! Most have as many as 100 victims before they are caught the first time! Changing their sexual orientation would be just as hard as changing yours! Sterilization isn't going to work as their are to many other body parts they can use. They could even get an implant! Their only cure is to never let them out!
If people become criminals of their own choosing, let's get rid of Bush now! He's a criminal! He was a criminal when he was elected!

I believe in the three strikes and you're out.
Criminals per say don't beget criminals. People become criminals of their own choosing.

Exactly what offenses would trigger this mandatory sterilization? How would it be done and at whose expense? "criminals beget criminals".........exactly where are you getting *that* from?

3 strikes is a failure
it costs taxpayers fortunes per year not to mention the supermax prisons
and what is the result?
has crime decreased?
time to coduct a more socially oriented policy in place of a offence-hunting policy..

Why sentence them at all - Just execute them instead. Dead Criminals do not repeat crimes. Cemetaries are good area to keep them. No money needed to feed and house them.
