No not when too many of you clowns think an 18 yr old having sex with a 17 yr old qualifies. I do agree with clearing non violent offenders like potheads from jails to make room for pedophiles, rapist and murderers.
I voted no on the assumption that you did not mean in the case of a child dying. I do believe long jails sentences and chemical castration should be required.
But castration wouldn't stop molesting..
I'm not surprised you aren't well read enough to know the examples I'm talking about. If it were my daughter under 15 they wouldn't have to have the trail, but the 16 yr old boy in the hospital for damaged shoulder due to over high giving after his sexy 25 yr old teacher had an extra lesson for him wouldn't apply in my book.

I knew a guy, paralyzed from the waist down, who was a big New Age, for the children guy, having movie nights for the neighborhood kids, he seemed very kind. He was also grooming my sons. People trusted him more because he was in a wheelchair.
He ended getting busted for molesting kids. Thankfully, my sons escaped this because I got suspicious, plus our boys had more involved parents. The kids who got molested had more beleaguered parents who let their kids hang out at the nice, hippie, New Age paralyzed guy's house, who 'loved' kids.
Molesting kids is a crime that starts in your head, not in your hormones.

Oh my gosh! That must have totally freaked you, knowing what could have happened. I am glad to know he was found out before he could harm your sons..and how sad for the others.

It was unnerving, to say the least.
These types of crimes are crimes of power. People get off on having power over the weak.
It becomes hardwired in the perpetrators, which is why they need to be locked up and throw away the key. Often the behaviors escalate, just like any addict needs higher and higher doses to get the same high.
I support the death penalty and would support it in this case.
Life imprisonment with zero chance of parole would also work.
The life imprisonment with no chance of parole proviso would sufficiently stop those bastards, individually (specific deterrence). But there would be a cost or two. (1) As long as the scum is alive, he can try to do such things again, perhaps to some young or tiny fellow inmate. I'm not sure that would be the right thing to do to even an inmate who has little chance for assistance from anyone else. (2) Society would be deprived of the "general deterrence" benefit of the execution of a pedophile. If some pedophile sees another child molesting piece of shit getting the death penalty, it might just make him hesitate before doing the same thing to any other victim.

It's my understanding that pedophile offenders are at the bottom of the food chain within the prison system.
Some of us oppose a death penalty for any reason.
Some of us endorse a death penalty for some reasons.
It is a given that there is no "cure" for pedophilia.
So, the question is:
Do you support the option, in your state's criminal law, of the possibility of the imposition of a death penalty for pedophiles?

The US SC, per the 8th AM, prohibits the death penalty for child rape already.

While it is true that the SCOTUS has so ruled, that is not the question. A determination like that from the SCOTUS is clearly binding, but it was a ridiculous ruling and could be reversed someday* when common sense and proper respect for the provisions of the Constitution eventually come to matter again.
The poll question is not whether it is legally possible. The poll question is simply to ascertain the beliefs of the members of USMB.
Should it be a possible sentence?
Even with my concern about the death penalty, I believe it should be an available sanction.

There is NO option permitted, hence the question was not where all posters knew about the ruling.

You write quite unclearly.
