I can't stop anyone from doing something I don't like.
But historically, there have been plenty of solutions to stop someone from doing something society doesn't like. For example, execution. Torture. Punishing their relatives. Exile. Prison. And asking them nicely to please stop.
Of those, I think prison is the best option. Putting someone in a cage may seem wrong, but letting them freely murder and rape innocent people is more wrong.
i prefer asking them nicely to please stop. i also think exile is fine, but we should try shunning first.
no one was murdered or raped here, and i'm not saying to let people murder or rape.
So you're fine with seeing some people in cages. You just don't want to see SBF in a cage.
no. who did i say should be caged?
What do you plan to do with murderers and rapists?
Exile is no longer an option, because no other country will allow them in. And everyone has already been told from a young age that murder and rape are unacceptable.
I don't have a one size fits all solution, and I don't believe any such solution can possibly be just in every circumstance.
How about a one size fits one solution?
Lucy Letby was found guilty of murdering seven infants. Would you send her to prison?
no.
Would you punish her or sentence her at all? If so, how?
I honestly don't know enough about the situation.
She murdered seven infants. What more information would you need in this case?
motive? mental state? all kinds of other factors might be at play.
Her diary said that she enjoyed watching parents suffer and that she knew she was evil.
What other factors would be relevant?
