Some assholes don’t even deserve that. At least rapists and murderers deserve whatever they get imo

Don’t expect people to respect the sanctity of your body if you won’t do same for others.

    An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.

    Wrong, an assailant has a maximum of two eyes to lose, they could at most completely blind one victim or partially blind two victims before being rendered blind themselves, which would make it extremely difficult to take a third eye from anyone

    Not if retribution is purely transactional. It’s not like rape can be accidental, nor premeditated murder.
