Actually castration may work almost as well as the Smith and Wesson... I'm fine with that, too ;-)

Kinda sad to say that neither castration nor emasculation does much to deter a pedophile. If you mean to deprive them of the "weapons of their evil ways," then you may as well include cutting off their fingers and cutting out their tongues.

Evil of that caliber is never limited to one attack style. That's just one of those cold realities.

I recommend the enriched lead treatment regimen. Best when delivered orally.

Ahhh, you misunderstood. I worked in the Criminal Justice field in an area relating to pedophiles and child predation.

The castration is not to remove "equipment", it is to remove fuel. They still have a sexual desire for children, but the urge to act on those desires gets stronger in relation to their level of testosterone. Castration lowers the level of testosterone and they are much less likely to touch or harm a child. Chemical castration works, also, but the pedophile needs to take female hormones to counteract the testosterone (monthly doses, I think). If they don't come in for their appointment, they go back to normal levels and their previously uncontrollable urge to commit a sexual act on a child.

My preference would be 15 years plus chemical or physical castration for first offense, life sentence for a later offense after being released. There is no CURE, just management.
