All rights stem from bodily autonomy.
And yeah, with black men being the objects of white psychosexual fears this has a lot of opportunity to become yet another means of disproportionate suffering of black men at the hands of the justice system and for eugenics.
So imagine what that number looks like for all sexual assaults against women and girls.
No State government gives a tiny shit about women getting raped. It’s just a cudgel to punish poor men and maintain the illusion that law enforcement protects women in America.
Yeah, I’ve seen how little cops care first hand. In fact, they managed to focus more on the race of the perpetrator, while ignoring the footprints that clearly indicated that they were wrong about how he got in.
If the justice system actually cared about victims of sexual violence they’d focus on tried and true known methods of reducing recidivism and they’d actually test rape kits
Any time they wanna make a new punishment or criminalize some behavior I figure it’s just because they don’t plan on applying it to white people.
I’ve never figured wrong on this.
It’s like the death penalty, once you kill someone it’s too late to say sorry when new evidence comes out and they are innocent.
It’s also like the death penalty that it riles people up, they say “God Damn Right” and “They DESERVE IT my mofuckin’ KIDS gotta be PROTECTED” while painting anyone who doesn’t like it as sympathetic to perverts.
So, it’s going to probably work really well.
If the 8th amendment doesn’t apply to this, idk what it would ever apply to.
Optimistic of you to think there’s still a constitution.
Except if it’s done against Republicans, then it’s funny

Make sex crimes punishable by castration -> Make it a sex crime to be trans/gay/lesbian -> commit genocide, by definition.
Cool
Sadly, that’s exactly the plan.
Make being transfem punishable by castration? Yay free bottom surgery!
(This is a joke)
Mostly cruel and pointless, of all sex crimes against children for example only a minority are sexually motivated
Much of this crime is perpetrated by people that can’t “fit in” with other social groups so this action may increase the likelihood of reoffending
“pointless” haha.
Everything is so fucking backwards right now it’s insane. We’ve hardly given progress a fair shake.
Bunch of grunting fools.Coming to all 50 states next year.
Wonder which states will see a rise in weaponizing rape and misandry following this discussion.
Besides all the points everyone else has mentioned:
“Even if just one rapist changes his mind about raping a child, I will take that.”
Always be skeptical anytime anyone uses an argument of this form. There are tradeoffs for everything, but this phrasing only serves to stop people from weighing them fairly.
Oh, and the above quote comes from the co-sponser of the bill, who is a Democrat. Just in case you thought this was a Republican problem.
Draconian laws have the effect of turning abuse into murder. On the other hand, we absolutely need to be castrating abusive parents. Break the skull of your infant, it gets taken away, have another one. Over and over. This society is so damn ignorant.
“They keep letting parents murder their babies millions of times!!!” says local idiot about thing that never happens.
My family fostered, and had 3 children from the same woman, one after another over the years. I lived it, so maybe educate yourself about the world before correcting me. We don’t live in a good world, no matter how much you want to believe it.
Parents who abuse or kill one child often go on to harm another, yet the U.S. lacks a national system to prevent them from having or regaining custody of future children. Despite prior terminations of parental rights, many go on to reoffend, a systemic failure in child protection.
Way to cowardly backtrack on the serial child murder allegations, a thing that does not happen. Why are you not posting evidence of that? Oh right, it’s because you made it up.
Yes, you likely will get children in and out of the foster care system, because drug addiction tends to be a really big issue, and not sure if you’re aware of anything, but people tend to relapse a significant portion of the time. However, that isn’t child murder, a thing you said happens, so let’s focus on that. Is the child murder in the room with you right now?
Sorry, you didn’t articulate well which thing you were being snarky about. But I’m done engaging with you, because you are unpleasant.
Sorry, I’m not sure which part of “murder their babies” was unclear, but I am in agreement that you cannot defend a fake thing that doesn’t happen.
Bad idea, there are a lot of false convictions. If you wrongly get catsrated that is it.
Wow cool so I guess we’re gonna get to see what Christian-flavored sharia religious laws look like in the states. Are we gonna get an all-America version of the morality police too?
Iranian morality police bad. American morality police good.
I don’t know that’d I call preventing child rape “morality policing” for either state but I suppose it is.
I’d argue that the means are barbaric and obviously ripe for political abuse and corruption.
