........ would you vote for?
Eg, death, castration etc.
Sorry to keep asking so many questions on the subject of rape today but I can't get the events of last week out of mind(see my previous questions).
If anyone finds these questions painful then you have my heartfelt apologies.
Thank you.

Having worked with victims of Rape (male & Female) I felt the need to respond to your question in a calm and responsible way.
It is so easy to come up with all these solutions i.e Castration,Death,and other forms of instant justice,none of these will work because for every one removed from society others will replace them.
The majority of Victims do not want extreme solutions offered by some of the replies you have had,these are people who are quite rightly angry and want instant justice.
Castration does not stop anyone from committing Sex Offences nor does Imprisonment,I cannot say what the solution is and nor can anyone, until some way of getting to the core of the problem is found, in the meantime its the victims we need to care for,and the offenders need to be put away until a solution is found that actually works.
I have seen your other posting and can understand how you feel and my sympathies and support go to the Victim and family who need exstensive support as all victims do.

Death is not the answer because they are not being punished for what they did, they are escaping justice. Thye should be made to suffer or what they did and for all the possible after affects thats gonna be caused as the child will have been scarred for life..not just for a few years.
Castration is a very good option especially if the subject has no mental problems...cos you cant punish them if they were not in control..pre meditated then yes..castration! Some may view it as harsh...and I would only recommend that as a second offence punishment...for a first timer id say at least 25 years in prison..
By prison I mean tougher prisons than we in the UK currently have!! Prisoners these days have luxeries and I believe they shouldnt have any. Harsh but maybe its the kick up the *** they need to stop them from becoming a repeat offender.

I didn't read/see your last question,unfortunately Yahoo Answers is worldwide and I am in Canada.But to answer your question this time: I personally don't care what the UK would do!, I would hold an event,sell lottery tickets,and the winners could do whatever they wanted. I,personally; would feed them to the lions!Remember sweetheart, even castration, does not stop a rapist - they only find a "tool" to use instead. A rapists mind controls, not sexual urges.There is NO CURE, for any of them. I hope know, that we have sadist,rapist & phedophile women also,and the seem to go unnoticed in our society. Women phedophiles have and are doing the unmentionables every min. of everyday Worldwide! Understanding,love,comfort and the ability to get on with ones life, is the only steps for the "victim" of rape. Without ALL those elements, the pain will stay vivid for many a year. I sincerly hope you have not been a victim.You can send me questions thru YahooAnswers - I am at the level of accepting these directly into my mail box. If I can help you, in anyway, use this service anytime to get intouch with me. I care, and you are NEVER bothering me with your questions darlin and never apologize, in advance and especially on the web.. if we don't like your question, we just won't answer. Take Good Care of Yourself,always be alert.

You can make the punishment as bad as you want, but it will not stop people. I live in America currently and for some crimes they strap you to a chair and electrocute you until your skin burns off. It is a pretty horrendous way to die. But do you think that America has a low homicide rate? Think again.
In Iran you can have have your hands, feet, and even limbs cut off for certain crimes, yet those crimes still happen.
In Singapore they will flog you with a cane leaving you scared for life for various crimes, including rape. Guess what, they still have rapists.
History has shown us that no matter how much you torture people, no matter how severe the punishment, crime still happens.
I know you are mad about the situation, but dreaming up horrible ways to torture, kill, mutilate, and maim people makes you no better than the criminals themselves. The only thing you can do with a child rapist is take them out of society forever. It is not normally possible to correct this mental illness.

There are other ways of violating people other then with their dicks, so would castration be a good solution? Rape is a violent crime based on hurting and controlling, it's not usually a sex thing. If they want to hurt people they will find another way.
I think they should get stuck in prison with guys that will continually beat and **s rape them. Maybe then they will begin to understand what they did.

Castration for starters. Then handed over to the childs parents for a night or two. Then thrown into a Malaysian jail for 20 years with six strokes of the rotan every month for good measure.

"death, castration etc"
Two good choices that would need to be backed up with strong evidence such as DNA. I believe in poetic justice so give them to the family of the victim/s.
Remember what happened to the child molester in the film SEVEN. The guy was tied to a bed and kept barely alive for months and even chewed his own tongue off.
Long and slow...
Then let them recover in hospital and do it all over again.

Give them to either the childrens parents or members of the public to kick to death.
More realistically, I think castration should be used on any sex offender along with a severe jail sentence. It would not interfere with their health and would give the public more security. They should also tattoo them on the forhead so people would know what they are.
I am also in favour of the public (or even just parents) being allowed to view the sex offenders register.

Certainly not death, there is no suffering in that for them! I say lock them on their own in a dark room, no day light, no visitors, bare minimum amount of food and water, nothing to occupy them, nothing to pass the time. Just leave them in their untill they die, hopefully racked with guilt and tortured by the memories of what they have done! What ever happens to them, it should be as mentally, emotionally and physically painfull as possible, and should literally last a life time!
