What a completely awful way to not address anything other than a desire for vengeance from victims.
The same dumbass somehow thought a vasectomy would be a punishment for sex offenders?? What the fuck is in the water down there?
I mean it's not a secret. It's lead. There's lead in the water down there.
Wtf does a vasectomy even accomplish? Their dick will still work afterwards so it won't even stop them from re-offending. What is the logic here?

“Now the libs can’t bitch about vIcTiMs oF rAPE when they try to kill babies”, probably.

So ban law-abiding contraception, but enforce it for criminals?
So ban law-abiding contraception, but ~~enforce~~ impose it ~~for~~ on criminals?
Will the Ten Commandments be force-branded on their chests, too?
Tattooed. See Kafka's "In The Penal Colony."
This is a setup for project 2025. LGBTQ people will be charged as "sex offenders" next year if trump gets in office.
Florida already has trigger laws for the death penalty for sex crimes against children (which maggots have already tried to pin that title on drag queens when they were reading to them)
Aside from a back alley, where do you find a doctor to perform this?
Sooooo make someone who has a fucked up itch not able to scratch anything… this is going to turn fucked up people into psycho killers. Public humiliation and punishment would be better than this. Put them in the stocks and let people throw tomatoes and pebbles and shit. Na, let’s cut off their balls. And what about female offenders? You going to just do a full hysterectomy? Just cut out their ovaries? Doesn’t quite work the same way with the opposite gender.
So most people will just take the jail time…. So why even use that language in the bill?
Oh they'll still be able to scratch it. Plenty of kids who were sexually assaulted as children can tell you that the person who assaulted them was not using their genitals in any way at the time. It's not actually about sex, it's about power. That's why this will be a complete failure.
Hey Bill! Where'd did you get them truck nuts!? Those are real big and hairy!
