A Japanese hairstylist has been sentenced to 17.5 years in prison and 20 strokes of the cane in Singapore this week for what the judge described as a “brutal and cruel” sexual assault and rape of a drunk student five years ago.

    Murder is inhumane so let’s cut off murderers’ ears without anaesthesia, that’s more humane than murder so it’s all good.

    Or maybe cut off a limb or two. Or maybe put them on drugs and torture them for a few months.

    We are such an ethical nation.

      He filmed the assault and sent it to his friend. The sexual assault of a drunk student. This isn’t imprisonment for weed possession, what the hell would a humane punishment be in this case?

        humane punishment is 17 years of prison.

        Inhumane is multilating this guys flesh and destroying his bowels.

        I would personally think going back to the justice system where you chop of hands for stealing something isn’t a priority.

        Eye for an eye has never worked.

        Generally most people like to think they are better than murders and rapists, so sinking to their level isnt ideal.
