It’s actually sick, they already get a light sentence and also getting protected by the justice system while the victim they violated is heavily traumatized, probably for life. And what’s crazier is it’s happening more, I’m seeing it daily now every time I scroll, there’s another case. Just a few days ago a middle aged women was walking (probably from work it was about 2-3am) and a man was behind her, he strangled her with a belt, dragged her in between two parked cars and sexually assaulted her. He has a wife and children. This is sick Something needs to be done. It’s not just here, Korea currently the woman have a movement going on called 4B. I haven’t dine my research about it yet but correct me if I’m wrong, this movement was started because every other day a woman was murdered,stalked,abused etc. So now, they want nothing to do with men. Why do the men act blind to this? Do they not see how the woman/children around them are being treated? Do they realize they need us to procreate? I honestly don’t know what is going on in this world anymore.
So here’s the rationale that is generally used: If you are in a country that utilises the death sentence then the only system that can decide that is the legal system. Vigilante justice, even when morally justified in the immediate, is not a rigorous or systematically moral justice system. Ergo if anyone is in danger of being killed then they must be protected, even if they are a terrible person, as they have not been sentenced to death (or even if they have, that sentence is not to be meted down by just some other random person).
If you are in a country with no death penalty, you as a society believe that no-one should ever be killed as retribution or as an example to others, thus the argument for protecting people from serious harm is obvious.
These same basic arguments apply for corporeal punishment.
Those who are believed to have committed horrific crimes such as those you mentioned will be in extreme danger because their crimes are fairly universally considered reprehensible (because they… You know… Are). The danger is that there is no perfect justice system. Miscarriages of justice do occur and whilst you may believe that actual perpetrators should be killed or maimed in prison, the risk is that innocent people may be subjected to a horrific and irreversible punishment for no crime at all. That is not acceptable to most people within most justice systems.
And this is why others will follow and it’ll continue, they know they’ll be protected and live such a sweet life in there
The insanity and ignorance necessary to call prison “a sweet life”.
What’s the goal here? There’s no way you’re this willfully ignorant, right?
What? How in the world is that your conclusion from my point? Are you seriously advocating for mob vigilante justice systems? I agree in essence that these crimes are abhorrent and must stop, but what are you proposing as a functional justice system?
The question really is what do they need to be protected from? If they must be heavily protected from physical harm that certainly implies that there is a threat of grave physical harm to them on a regular basis. That doesn’t sound like a sweet life to me.
