I consider myself an originist to the constitution which I have sworn to protect and defend so help me God. That being said your proposal here is, in my opinion, a direct violation to the 8th amendment "no cruel or unusual punishments inflicted".
I personally am not opposed to chemical castration for rape (given safeguards) and I am a proponent of capital punishment in the case of murder for example. But your draconian measures go even further then our Lord God with an eye for an eye, which I'm for.
Just my opinion, you do you and all that kumbaya stuff.
I know full well it was over the top, I wanted responses and debate, yours was sound, logical and I agree with you to the extent of principle but your tolerance policy would show far less immediate results than my draconian policy. Just sayin., If I know I would go through life maimed and wishing for death vs being whole and happy living by the rules, I might choose rules, .... naaah, who am I kidding? I'd still push the envelope. ;)
