The Netherlands Volleyball Federation says Steven van de Velde has shown "self-insight and reflection" since his 2016 conviction for raping a 12-year-old.
I see no problem with it. The corrections facility worked. I am of the belief that criminals are the product of poor social conditioning, and that the correct behaviors can be reconditioned.
At the very least it should be classed as a mental illness and treated as such. Nobody chooses who or what they’re attracted to, and those suffering deserve help, especially when they’ve not acted on it (the guy in the post also deserves help but also needs punishment for his actions on top of it)
Yes. Every human has an “id” or animalistic desire. Part of living in a society is giving up part of those desires so we can all thrive. People can change, it’s part of what make us human.
That would be good if it worked. We probably agree but I think it should just make them into people with a purpose and have a life worth living. I dont think we can change how they feel, but we can do like the military does and give them purpose and direction.

How do you know the corrections facility worked? I feel like it would be easy to say the exact things you are supposed to say.
Why have a correction facility at all if you have no belief that it works? Corrections facility should focus on social reconditioning not punishment.
