Personally, I suspect most people who are capable of raping a child belong in a psychiatric hospital instead of a prison.

Work in one for 6-12 months civil or forensic, you may have a different view afterward. A majority of the criminals end up on the forensic side which will always be state ran. Talk to the nurses and techs that work with that population, look at the results. Most state facilities have a mission statement of rehabilition for for civil and criminal. Criminals are there either to establish whether or not they are competent enough to stand trial, or they were found guilty but insane. Either way the "rehab treatment" is nothing more than a softer jail with required doses of antipsychotic behavior modifying medications. If they follow the treatment plan they are given the possibilty exsists to be transfered to the civil side within half their sentencing. Once there the road to being released is fairly easy. With that said ask the people that work with them every day, how many of their "patients" do they feel are playing the system. The eye for an eye philosophy is obviously not one you agree with; so are there any limits to your mindset on that?
I believe in other discussions I heard you state you would not have a problem defending yourself or your family with a firearm ( I might be wrong ). If thats the case, it means you would kill if it means stopping harm to your family. But if you were 5 minutes too late and the police caught the killer 2 blocks from your house your mindset would go from killer instinct wanting to possibly rehab the person?
