heres a salute to my 8 new favorite criminals.

http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=181640

Two brothers serving time in a NSW jail for a series of gang rapes have been bashed by eight other inmates, leaving one of them in a critical condition.

brothers convicted in 2002 for a number of gang rapes, including that of Tegan Warner, who was 14 at the time.

Two things you don't want to be in prison, a rapist or a child molester.


There's a reason kid touchers aren't usually kept in general population.

Indeed. You are not at the bottom of the food chain, you are way below the bottom. Even the bottom feeders, so to speak, are held higher than you. Everyone has a sister/daughter/niece, etc, and they tend to feel very strongly about such.

Also, I think the real reason rapists and pedophiles are the bottom of the chain is you can probably get away with doing ANYTHING to rapists and pedophiles, since the guards probably hate them just as much as the prisoners.

Whatever, the fuckers have no place in the traditional penal system. It's deeply disturbed individuals, not normal criminals. They belong in a leper colony type thing, not a normal prison. There's nothing morally justifiable about subjecting insane people to possibly lethal torture, and there's nothing sane about letting repeat sex offenders loose on society.

And whatever honour there might be amongst inmates, why is it they have to do your dirty work? If you want them tortured, legalize torture & set up some torture chambers.

I'm surprised by the division here, but I heard about these crimes when they occurred and you have to remember these aren’t just some guy's who gave into evil urges, they repeatedly subjected women and girls to hours of degradation and torture.

Nah, if you agreed to not cross red traffic lights but do so anyway, you committed fraud, and possibly endangerment. One may apply for restitution, but only if they are the one affected by it. There was no obvious intent to commit harm. Petty theft is a bit worse, and if the owner wants restitution he is entitled to attain it. No one else is, however.

so fuck the fact that there human and that they are very sick (I’d be very worried if anyone would disagree with this)

Human, like Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, etc.? It's moral cowardice to just let them off the hook because you think they're 'sick'- after all, we could just say anyone who does anything bad is just 'sick' in some way and is not accountable for their actions. This is tantamount to determinism, which absolutely dehumanizes people, as it robs them of their consent to action, which is what separates humans from animals.

Yes it is your fault. I don’t care if you blame it on your bad child hood or mental imbalance. if you snap at some one, and every time you do you get the shit kicked out of you, I guarantee you would stop snapping at people, far quicker then years of therapy.


Oh silly me I forgot that its perfectly normal to kill millions of people/touch children

ohh I see we shouldn’t punish criminals, their sick, we should send them to a psychiatrist... 'So you raped a dozen women, what’s that two more this morning, how does that make you feel?'


nothing separates humans from animals apart from an imagination and even that’s pushing it so could it be that maybe criminals need to be rehabilitated instead of punished :eek:

It’s naive to think you can change people, for instance are you going to change your views just because some one say's there wrong?? No, rehabilitation works on some people but usually only those who a forced into a life of crime due to circumstance, I wonder what you think made these men rape those women, because they had no other choice??

The one thing you'll learn about people with depression, they can only be helped if they want help. I can hear it now ‘ I don’t want to gang rape women, please help me doctor’

If they were able to rationally plot how to kill so many people and in what ways, I cannot just write them off as being unaccountable for their actions.

you take medicine and/or get councilling for a condition that is not of normal human behaviour no?

Certain substances have certain effects on humans, so it would be logical to take them if we want to feel a certain way, and we are social creatures, hence the value of counselling, so yes, counselling and taking drugs is normal human behavior.

Yep its not just the consequences that stop me from killing everyone in site its also my brain and natural instincts same goes for my fear of heights to a point

Yes but every one has a basic power of logic. If these men were snarling beasts then yes I would blame the condition, but having too much testosterone is no excuse to go out and repeatedly rape women.

now if you don't have urges to do the wrong thing at times, urges that you resist, then I envy you, I must have a multitude of mental disorders from what you describe, but the big difference is I don’t act or not act on impulses because of them, every human is born with the ability to reason, if you choose to ignore that ability then you must suffer the consequences.

Further more I want to ask you now if any of you have had a close friend of family member raped because I have and I tell you what it makes you think about things when the perpetrator is cunning and wily enough to get away with a crime which is supposedly a mental disorder, his brain seemed to be working fine to me.

now I just want to ask CTP to imagine your sister or daughter, or mother being held down and raped for hours, picture it, think on it for some time, men holding her down while they take turns violating her, all sniggering and laughing at her pathetic attempts to resist.... just think about that, then say, ‘oh but there sick, its not their fault.’

Because raping someone is more or less the worst thing you could possibly do to them? I wouldn't call it "just a form of assault".

That and dead people don't have to worry for the rest of their being dead about being killed again.

Rape victims may feel extremely vulnerable after a rape. Frightened of being raped again, the mental anguish that someone could take pleasure out of their misery, etc.

I agree, it's not just assault, like beating someone in the head with a pipe, I consider a form of torture (in the mental/emotional sense)
