[Q] How would you feel about castration, chemical or surgical, for pedophiles or rapists as an alternative choice to staying in prison the rest of your life?
If it worked it would save society a lot of money, so I’m in favor of it.
[Q] It seems to work, you know, pedophiles and rapists say that their urge goes if you castrate them, and they would like to be...
Then do it!
[Q] We don’t, you know we don’t, but you see no reason not to?
No, I would do it, yes. No. I mean on the other hand what to do about psychopaths? If Adrian Raines is right one in 30 people is a psycho-sociopath and so when you, you know, they commit a nasty crime you just automatically lock them up for life. Or you just shoot them.
[Q] It’ll be interesting to know about castration in that situation. And mostly are men I assume, do we know? One in 30.
No, I think there are a lot of women...
[Q] Are there?
But we didn’t really hear about that. He said one in three people seeking temporary employment in Los Angeles is a psychopath, and I think women and men are about equal, so that’s why I think I would’ve heard that it’s only... so it’s a very interesting... so it’s as if, you know, the collection of genes which make us altruistic or have empathy or something like that, something is missing, and so they don’t feel it. I don’t want to name names here as to which scientist I might think, you know, have zero empathy, but they exist! And, boy, they are often successful, hated people.
