I do not believe that there is a harsh enough punishment for the people of this world that seek out children. No adult should be able to victimize a child in the worst way possible and still be able to walk around and have that opportunity again.
I propose that pedophiles need harsher legal punishments. In my opinion, ruining the innocence of a child is worse than murder. That child pays a life sentence, and some are so traumatized that they attempt to take their life while their abuser gets to walk free.
Sure, they go on a sex offender list, but it’s not enough. No matter where these people live, and most of the time work, they’re going to have access to kids, and that is just unfair to them. They are innocent. They do not deserve this.
If we go down the castration route, I think chemical castration is probably the most ethical way, but I personally wouldn’t be opposed to a more physical castration either.
