Why Do We Send Drug Addicts and Pedophiles…..?

Question by : Why do we send drug addicts and Pedophiles…..?
to jail? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not justifying their actions. But, they both have a mental disorder. Sending them to Prison won’t help them, they need help from Professionals. Sending them to Prison without getting them a Psychologist, won’t help anyone. It would only keep people and maybe (keyword: Maybe) themselves safe. Most Pedophiles aren’t violent, and many drug addicts aren’t violent either. I know there are sadistic Pedophiles and very destructive drug addicts. But, we send these sick people to prison, put them at risk of getting killed by other inmates, but we don’t even get them help. Pedophilia isn’t a choice, and Drug Addiction isn’t always a choice either, or they weren’t thinking straight. We need to only send Sadistic and Violent Pedophiles, and Drug Dealers to prison.
-Philmore – I’ve read up in quite a bit of places, that despite people wanting to castrate a Pedophile. Sexuality is more mental then physical, Castration won’t take away the attraction. If they molest children, you’d only make it worse for the child because they would insert different objects that wasn’t designed for it.
