Paedophiles makes me wonder if we should bring back branding as a punishment.

Clearly any register you need to manually go and look up the person is too easily missed, but a brand on a shoulder would not be overlooked as easily.

    Yeah, but I don't want to force them further into crime to be able to survive.

    That is bad for society, I'd rather make sure that they would be able to feed themselves and not causing any more trouble.

    The brand would still be easy to check.
