I agree, Brian. I'm just pointing out the ridiculousness of the DP and the fact that we don't use the same logic in any other circumstance. Except killing.
Ok, so the rapist can also be healed from being raped.
(btw, I am so sorry that that happened to you. That is truly awful.

If we have state sanctioned killing for people who have killed, why don't we have state sanctioned rape for people who have raped? I mean, really. What's the difference?
Because I have healed from being raped. I have healed and moved on. You can't really heal from death. Those killed don't get their life back. They don't even get the chance to try to be a better person, they don't get letters from loved ones, they don't get to go to a library and read, they don't get to buy noodles from the commissary, they don't get to see the fame they have created for themselves. If the victim can't move on then the one doing the damage shouldn't either.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
