For anyone that was unaware, I have a "Cause" on Facebook called Mandatory Death Penalty for Child Molestors, yes I'm serious, and I recently received the following message on there... (Spelling and grammatical errors are hers.)
"i understand your cause... just wanna know how you feel when a husband and wife divorces and one plays the he/she molested the child as a get back tactic and someone is wrongfully accused? Then what we just assume someone did this and umm KILL em ? People are accused every day . I understand there is also ligit cases But damn LETS NOT BE HARSH! If you also look up statistics people can be rehabed . I think this is a BIG issue all together Im just throwing out a cenerio to you."
I decided that I would respond here because I can't seem to respond to her personally or on Facebook...
Number 1, in "just throwing out a cenerio" (it's scenario, by the way) to me, you've made a few glaring mistakes. I'm going to ignore your spelling, punctuation and grammatical mistakes and attack your arguement head on. A child molester is someone who has been convicted, with physical and medical evidence, of MOLESTING CHILDREN. So please don't give me a sob story of someone being wrongfully accused. In this country, we have a whole lot of resources dedicated to making sure people receive a trial before they are deemed guilty. I never said Death Penalty for the Accused, I said Death Penalty for Child Molesters.
Number 2 - Your statement "LETS NOT BE HARSH!" is abso-fucking-lutely ridiculous. You mean not harsh like the molester was when he shattered that childs life through his selfish and disgusting actions? Is that the type of harsh things that we want to avoid? If anyone is queasy about throwing the switch on the electric chair for these people, I nominate myself. And when I die, and go to purgatory (I'll be there at least for the whole judging which elevator I'm taking to eternity. My money's on "down") I bet Jesus would make a special trip to slap me on the back and thank me for exterminating these scumbags. At least I'm pretty sure it's what Jesus would've done.
Number 3 - The final statement, "If you also look up statistics people can be rehabed" is as equally dumb as the arguement, as a whole. What statistics, where? Seriously, if you've read these statistics, where are they at? Because I can't find anything that says sex offenders can be conclusively rehabbed. I'm interested, though. Is there some secret experiment somewhere that the rest of the universe has never heard of? No, unfortunately, there isn't. There isn't a single conclusive study that proves that child molesters can be rehabbed, period.
Your arguement holds no water. But hopefully, the next time someone throws the switch on the electric chair, a child molester is holding some water.
