Slightly radical, but effective.

We take the guy, cut his balls off, and drop him into a tank full of hungry piranha. $18.50 for the pay per view package.

If these guys knew they would be dropped into a piranha tank with their nuts cut off if they were caught, I think they would think twice about what they are doing.

My first canidate is the Green River Killer.

So additional piranha are dropped in at 2 minute increments. That way it's a slow build.

Yeah, people who perpetrate crimes like this don't think too much about possible punishment because they know they can work the system.

Let's see them work the piranha system.

Normally I don't pass judgement on people until their day in court has run it's course, as a matter of experience. But it certainly sounds as if they have the evidence to put this abomination out of circulation for quite some time.

One can only hope that they do so.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. I know you press types thrive on annecdotes, but they don't prove anything either way.

The issue is not so much where it is coming from, it's that abusers need to be taken out or done away with! If the religious right comes out bashing the Gay community you have more than enough discouraging info to throw in their face. You could shut them up real fast.

We have had to deal with a lot of abusers because we work with 100's of children in poor areas.
Just the other day I was singing with my group and this young guys in his twenties struck up a conversation and told me he really wanted to learn to sing, blah, blah, blah. The next thing I hear is my friend screaming in the little girls bathroom because this same guy took his pants off and was having a grand old time masturbating in the little girls bathroom. My friend was taking her young daughter in there and was quite furious at what she saw. Who knows if the guy would have ever actually touched a kid but he wont be back so we can find out either.
Needless to say we chased him out of there and he has never come back!

But there are times like these when the pay-per-view scenario proposed above that would provide SOMEthing to the victims seems like a nice idea.

As opposed as I am to the death penalty, when it happens to someone who clearly deserves it, are you really upset?

When he's elected Mayor, he's going to start the "Piranha Love" column where he interviews the killers and sexual criminals as they are getting nibbled on by the piranha.

He will ask them such things as, "How does it feel in there, fucker?"

It will be a runaway success.

Really? What about on teacher, guidance counselor or PTA member?

It's not the gender of the victim that usually interests pedophiles, but the innocence of the victims, and the power that they can exert over the victims.

Aren't pedophiles just "being themselves"? Weren't they born that way?
