would you : culture : HOW SHOULD CRUELTY TO CHILDREN AND ANIMALS BE PUNISHED?

[+] serious ballot by mojo
created Sat Aug 26, 06
Imagine a child locked in a closet for the first five years of his life, starved and humiliated and forced to eat hot chili peppers.

Imagine a dog that is beaten to within an inch of its life on a regular basis, just for the owner's amusement.

In both scenarios, the human in power is a sick bastard, with total control over a helpless being. What is the appropriate punishment for such an individual?

Prison
Prison, with the same kind of abuse meted out on THEM.
Therapy and community service.

COMMENTS:
Voted : Prison
The person should be given the same punishment that anyone who committs assault on a person or attacks animals they should be given prison time.I know that some would want to put the criminal through the same punishment he put his victims through but than we would be no better than the criminal.

Prison, no question. People who abuse animals (which should be punished in its own right) stand a pretty good chance to abuse people later on.

And adults who intentionally cause harm to children have forfeited their membership in the human race, string the bastards up.

Imprisoned, so as to keep them from further harming others, and therapy to deal with the "sick" part of being 'sick bastards.'

First they shouldn't be lumped together.

A child has more value than ANY animal.

Humans are more important than animals.

Anyone who tortures a weak and helpless being is a sick bastard.

Regardless of what species he/she chooses to victimize.

Many of those sickos cannot or will not be rehabbed.

I believe public stonings should be brought back. Tie the bastards to a tree and and stone them til they die.

Prison, as with any other crime.

A combination of involuntary psychiatric comittment, therapy (for however long it takes), and of course, research. We can learn alot from these sick people (i.e. what makes them do this in the first place, and hopefully a cure).
Just throwing them into prison or outright execution or whatever makes no sense. The problem would still be present with that mode of treatment.
