What is crazy is that your comment got more likes than the one you replied to. Humans are really disgusting and humanity is a lost cause, beyond saving. Child traffickers should not only be killed but also tortured and raped before killing them - get the same treatment as the kids that were kidnapped.
While I believe that child murderers, especially those who rape and torture children, have absolutely EARNED their death penalties, your suggestion that we torture them the same way is ridiculous. Who do we get to perform this punishment? Another torture-murderer we haven’t executed yet? Or is this a Department of Corrections position with specialized training?
I don’t buy the argument that executing a heinous murderer lowers the government to their level, but torturing them first DEFINITELY does.
That’s an immature position to take. Think harder.
Retribution achieves nothing except continuing the circle of violence.
The humane thing to do is recognizing the humanity even in supposed monsters. Let’s suppose that doesn’t matter and we would agree that certain crimes need to be punished with the most intense cruelty we can come up with:
What if someone is wrongfully convicted? that happens all the time. You can’t undo killing someone.
Torture and death penalty are barbaric and have no place in democracy.

“Humanity is a lost cause” - proceeds to display a phenomenal lack of humanity by demanding retribution.
Good game. Way to make a point.
