This is the most appropriate response so far. Condoning violence on someone serving their sentence is kind of fucked. If death were an option, many people would opt for it and this just shows how little people grasp the severity of time is as a punishment.
After approximately two years, people start to lose the ability to live a normal life. They end up becoming institutionalized and only being able to live in a prison facility.
This helps nobody. This does not rehabilitate, teach, or forgive. You can't get back what was lost, but you can promote growth, or feed hate I suppose. Hate breeds more hate though.
Some people are beyond rehabilitation. You let them out and they something terrible again are you going to say aww shucks, the child rapist got out and raped another child, really thought the rehab would have helped?
So that person that can't be rehabilitated, will spend the rest of their life in jail while our tax dollars pay for him to live, meanwhile the victim will live the rest of their life traumatized by what he did, with no support of help from our tax dollars. He will never offer anything useful to society.
I've read that permanent effects happen after 12 hours or so. Not all but some.
