Reply #78: The main thing wrong with it is that it offends any normal person's sense of justice [View All]

Depriving a person of both sight and sightliness is not comparable to stealing from a bank. It's comparable to torture-murder.

I don't blinding this guy is really appropriate, although it's not totally off the wall either. But the best thing with someone so psychopathic is to simply shoot him dead. The world doesn't need him, and for sure doesn't need any offspring he might produce.

I'm a DP opponent for almost every crime, but some, like this one, reveal a level of psychopathy so complete that there is zero hope of socialization. It is much more likely that one day she will have her sight and face restored than that he will ever become a trustworthy member of society.


(edit) It would be more appropriate, if killing him is out of the question, to put him in a special zoo, on public display, like the dangerous non-human he truly is inside. Deprive him of everything human, and let him live out his life among others of his kind.

But that would get the professional bleeding hearts even more upset, I suspect.
