SINGAPORE — A father of seven who sexually abused four daughters, raping three of them, and ill-treated a son was sentenced to 33 years, two months jail and 24 strokes of the cane on Friday (18 March).

This includes a seven-month jail term in lieu of 36 strokes of the cane, which cannot be imposed on the man as 24 strokes is the statutory maximum.

I consider 1 cane too many.

Corporal punishment is fucked up, no matter how heinous the crime.

For a child rape? lol cane this piece of shit until he fucking dies.

Fuck the idea that any crime justifies the state enacting corporal punishment. If they can justify that it’s an acceptable punishment for anything they can justify it’s an acceptable punishment for anything

This is a prime example of the slippery slope fallacy. Using the same argument, you could claim that prison shouldn't be a thing because the state could abuse this power and imprison people for anything.

Fine. Let me do it, then

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

Good idea! That'll unrape them.

[-] Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

They should fly in the best caner from anywhere in he world to do this guy. Put it on ppv and give the money to the girls for all the therapy they are gonna need.

Oh shut up. Maybe anybody would care to hear this if he had done something other than repeatedly rape his daughters, but....He should be caned and then shot shortly after.

Torture is fine if they're disgusting enough, that makes sense.

Personally I think all executions should be carried out humanely. You don't need to beat them, they don't need to fall down any stairs.

You have a cancer on society, and you excise it with speed and dignity.

Or you say the state has no right to execute anyone for anything, pick a moral stance and stick to it.

Otherwise you're just a sadist looking for an excuse. Something that will let you pretend you just don't want cause pain yourself, because that would make you the baddie, and that can't possibly be right.

Well I was thinking "shortly after" meant "when he's nearly healed from the beating"

Paragons of Virtue Arrested

It's time to name and shame the self-proclaimed paragons of virtue. Keep it civil, though.

Stories are about those who have been placed in positions of trust, and then abused that trust.

Feel free to add stories of the self-righteous from other walks of life.

New rule: With regard to stories of particularly, but not only, female teachers sexually assaulting students. Any comments similar to "where were they when I was in school" will earn you the right to find another forum.
