    Who will be deemed useless and dangerous?
    Who will have this power to judge?
    Will they be responsible, or corruptible?

        What alternative do you have for people actively detrimental to societies such as serial killers and child rapists?

          Reform, and if they continue to pose a risk for society keep them in a prison/psychiatric ward until they die or are reformed.

          Look at how Norway handles Breivik for example. That guy is a proper monster. But he still gets treated according to human rights, cause he is still human. We as a society should be better and more rational than the monsters that we condemn.

          It’s pretty easy to not-murder. I’ve been doing it my whole life. Even went vegan!

            You know that most rapists never actually see a day in court, let alone are jailed, and rape actually does not net people life sentences, only a few years at most, right?

            But who needs facts or to take anyone else’s feelings into consideration when your personal feelings are so much more important than the rest of the planet’s and the women you subjugate with your shit?
