If you have the death penalty for even possessing CSAM as the parent suggests, then there is no incentive to not get into distribution or even actively abusing children and producing CSAM once you posess some. The punishment isnt any worse so why not? Its the same reason for proportionality in other crimes, we dont punish robbing a bank with life in jail as then there would be no reason for anyone who robs a bank to not just murder everyone to leave no witnessess. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] superkret@feddit.org 18 points 2 years ago And if you propose the death penalty for abusing children, a child abuser has incentive to kill the child afterwards to get rid of the witness. The punishment can't get any worse, and it reduces the chance of getting caught. permalink fedilink source parent [+] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org -8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 11 months ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [+] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world -25 points 2 years ago (2 children) Oh, I was thinking something far worst than death.
