Well, I suppose we could go back to castration for rapists and cutting off hands for anyone convicted of stealing.
I'm sorry, I just disagree with the overly punitive attitude many conservatives seem to have. Getting all super harsh doesn't really serve much of a legitimate purpose. It just makes some people in society feel a little better.
Shall I guess you're also the type of person who believes in 10-year prison sentences for anyone caught behind the wheel of a car who has drunk a little too much alcohol?
