Poland Introduced Chemical Castration for Paedophiles

Poland Introduced Chemical Castration for Paedophiles

www.telegraph.co.uk...

The method involves giving convicted paedophiles drugs which take away their sexual urges.
Calls for the introduction of chemical castration have arisen following a recent incest case that shocked the country.
In a story reminiscent of that of Josef Fritzl, a 45-year-old man was arrested in Poland a fortnight ago accused of fathering two children by his young daughter.
Polish prime minister Donald Tusk unveiled the legislation after being angered by the revelations.

I find this amazing, finally a country in the EU has the balls [pun intended] to stand up the stupid human rights laws in this world.

Although I'm all for this it does raise some questions of what happens if the conviction is false, i know for a fact this probably won't come to pass in the long run but it is a good poke at brussels.

Good.

One word would have sufficed, if not for the silly 1 line rule

Is there any chance the OP can amend their title on this thread? It's a bit misleading. The Telegraph actually gives a header of "Poland to enforce chemical castration of paedophiles".

As your thread stands, the misquoted title and the small selected quote suggests physical castration rather than chemical castration, which raises completely different concerns.

Chemical castration is the right idea. This would be a major leap in stoping this from happening in the first place.

Ps. Spitefulgod, love the Haruhi image. So hard to find good ones...

We should do the same here in the U.S. Except it shouldn't be chemical. It should be more of a stump, hatchet, and hot iron kind of affair. These people showed no decency to their victims, we'll give them the same in return.

I would be behind 100000000% . But only in situations that are able to be proved 100% beyond ANY doubt. Like cases where they video taped ect.

They will have to be very careful not to do this to anyone innocent.


I think just knowing this could happen could curve most potential molesters from doing it . Or it could just drive them underground and encourage them to kill their victims instead of releasing them like allot do .

Let's keep the profanity and calls for physical mayhem and other overly-emotional replies in check, please.

oh boy.. if they do this in some countrys I guess there would not be many priests left with their crown jewels intact...

I am all for human rights, but for paedophiles I gladly make an exception.

Their actions undermine the lives of our children, our future. They're a pest, a poison, I can go on for an hour but you get the idea..

I'm against the death penalty in most cases but these freaks deserve everything that's coming to them, and then some!

But, as someone pointed out, they better have some darn good proof.

It's not like they can re-instate those cojones once they're out of order.. and if you're innocent and this happens, the stigma in the papers alone is enough to destroy the person's life, repair money would be skyhigh.. and still be lacking..

Offcourse, it's a step up from having been sentenced to death and then being found innocent some years after you bought the farm..

This is old news.

I don't remember what channel it was but I remember it was about six years ago sex offenders were being experimented on in prisons with this.
I say it's a great idea.

Anyone stop to think that a child-molester might actually want to have something like this done, to keep them from offending again? The reason I ask is because I had a regular customer in my store a few years ago who took medicine that killed his sex drive. It was a part of his parole agreement, but he had to pay for it. He panicked when he lost his job and could no longer afford it. He was literally crying, saying, "You don't understand, I need this medicine," the day before he re-offended.
