Hang child molesters!

Is it not that way in your country?
Pity.
Rule: Less child molesters, less hangings.

The problem with that in the US is that, in some states, a seventeen year old girl who gives her one-week-from-sixteen-years-old boyfriend a blowjob that he asked for is considered a pedophile as is a guy who stops to take a leak in the bushes and gets seen by kids, even if his genitals are completely hidden from view.

Kylyssa's right. You'd be amazed at what trivial thing can get someone labelled as a sex offender. If they fix the system then sure, harder punishments for molesters. But I say, why not molesters of any kind?

It depends on what kind of "molestation" you are talking about and how old the persons involved are. I think that "indecent"  exposure or sexual harassment should not be treated the same like physical rape. The maximum punishment for child molestation that you get in my country is 12 years (if you fuck a kid who is younger than twelve).

Assuming you mean rapists, child molesters and their ilk? Deterrence doesn't work with pedophiles, as often their condition is either genetic or due to childhood trauma, neither are effected (or affected? damn you, third grade English!) by threat of punishment. Rape, on the other hand, can be deterred, but hanging someone is incredibly extreme, even more so than lethal injection or gas chamber. Interestingly, studies have shown access to internet pornography significantly reduces the instance of rape.

Most developed countries that still have yet to abolish the death penalty usually leave such a sentence for (often multiple) premeditated murder. As terrible as these things are, they're not murder.

Personally, I believe people guilty of sex crimes should undergo significant counseling. I cannot imagine an emotionally stable person committing such acts.
I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.

It's a self-feeding virus.
Pedophiles were victims of sexual molestation in childhood, and now they have the excuse to do the same?!...
I say, kill the bastards  in a market square to eliminate the evil from its routes.
What other way has been successful, tell me!

From what I've read that is actually a myth. The "Vampire Myth" or something to that effect. Honestly killing them all will never eliminate it once and for all. There are other factors that cause that behavior. As Will mentioned it could even be genetic. Although in which case I don't know how much good counseling would do.

What good will hanging do? Rehabilitation over punishment. If we can help them, we should. If not, jail or death are the only other real options, and I'd rather choose jail.

IMO, no one deserves to die lawfully. I'd say let them die naturally, in prison.

I think there's just too much danger of a molested child naming anyone who sets off her trauma triggers as her molester to use the death penalty on pedophiles.  

I've suffered a lot of trauma in my life and, even as an adult, some of it runs together and people who feel threatening can be superimposed over the actual assailants.

Child molesters know what they are doing holds harsh penalties.  "Short eyes" don't do so well in prison because many prisoners feel as the OP does and they may feel they have nothing to lose.  It doesn't stop molesters from molesting.  There's no deterrent effect.  

Deterrent effect requires that criminals have control.  If they did, they wouldn't be criminals in the first place.  They aren't in logical control of themselves.  That's why some pedophiles even ask to be castrated, chemically or otherwise.

Yuck, but if it saved a single child, it would be worth a world of yuck.

I think it might have saved more than it wronged. Oh, sure, some creep would get inspired to do the real thing by screwing one of those, but then again... Having screwed something reasonably close to the objective, I think most creeps would be able to conjure enough respect for the law, if not for their potential victims, not to take it to that next level.

I'm not in any way qualified to make such a call, but I think lifelike toys for those who just can not keep it in their pants would be more beneficial than harmful.

AND... Profit!  :D

For instance: RCC pedophile priests should be blinded.
If they were innocent, the prayers of other priests would quickly restore their sight and - PRESTO! - innocence proved!
