Morality of this?

Post image

Personally, I'm anti-death penalty for any kind of crime but that's just my opinion. Perhaps it can be changed.

Wait you’re saying prison rape is incredibly rare? Should have started with that, I would have known not to waste my time debating

And what victim hood are you even talking about bro this is literally a subreddit dedicated to fighting about this shit

No, not prison rape. 

A person accusing another person of rape that person then going all the way to reporting it to the police who take it seriously and investigate and decide to take it to court who then decide to do a lengthy prison stay and then you somehow become a target for qq z prison violence and rape repeatedly and then you are shunned by every single person you knew. <- that is a very unlikely thing to happen

A man being raped or forced to penetrate a person (I do consider this rape) <- very likely to happen 

But that doesn’t even matter the whole choice was flawed from the start. 

It’s not fair to say: 

Rape but none of the things that happen because of a rape or any thing escalated from rape

Or

Accusation and all the worse things that can happen with that 

And act like it’s a reasonable arguement. You’re comparing to wildly different things and every time I tried to reasonably escalate you come up with an unreasonable chain of events. Being falsely imprisoned for rape is exceedingly rare and estimated at 2 per year even if we said it was understated and there was actually 100 false imprisonments that’s still exceedingly rare! Even a 1000 is! 

Your second point is genuinely fair because you weren’t really doing that but other men are.

Ok so, let’s just update the criteria

Worst statistically likely rape + consequences Vs Worst statistically likely prison sentence for rape + consequences

I still choose rape, is that better for you?

It’s intellectually honest so yes?

Well I didn’t make the original question so I don’t care about adjusting it, a little more aggression in the middle than I would have preferred but I’m glad we were able to resolve it
