Castrate Roman Polanski

There are some sins that can't be forgiven by mortal man.

Forcible castration of pedophiles is an idea whose time has come. Finally, the Pols get something right.

There are some sins that can't be forgiven by mortal man.

It is time for the implemenation of forcible castration of pedophiles [6]. Finally, the Pols get something right besides haute cuisine [7].

Recidivism rates are low [8] for perverts, but the numbers are unreliable. I don't know how a child rapist can be rehabilitated, and I don't want to know. There are some sins that can't be forgiven by mortal man, and if death by torture is not an option, then I don't see anything wrong with making a child rapist's life a hell on Earth. Of course, we must be sure that the pervert is guilty and that piece could make for a sticky wicket. But as long as we can be sure, then I'm OK with that.

Note to Roman Polanski: I don't care what your Hollywood friends [9] say -- I read the teenager's testimony of how you violated her [10]. And I think it's time for your close-up.

Does anyone out there think that castration is too harsh?
