Germany is rejecting demands from an EU body that it should stop surgically castrating sex criminals - a practice that dates back to the Nazis - because it is ‘degrading’.
Defying Brussels, the German government said it intends to carry on with the practice citing low re-offending rates among sex criminals who had opted to have the procedure.
It pointed out the results of a 1997 study that tracked the history of 104 sexual offenders 'who subjected themselves to castration in the decade between 1970 and 1980. Their reoffending rate was three per cent,' the German authorities explained, 'as opposed to 46 per cent for a control group.'
Heh. Awesome. Most sex offenders need to put up against a wall, anyway, IMO.
ReplyDeleteMake the castration mandatory.
I know, I'm a liberty guy and all, but I think the .gov should be very harsh in punishing real criminals.
