There has to be an alternative punishment for abusers..something harsher than just jail or prison time. I agree with the woman that she needs to rethink the food part. Say by: the U.S. government designates a remote island for abusers only. No authority figures or LE are allowed - only the abusers. Armed guards patrol the waters around the island...as do sharks. Food drops every 6 months or so...nothing frivolous, just beans, taters, and cornbread. Strike that: no beans - too filling. That way the abusers can all rethink...and abuse one another.

Not good enough. They will go on to abuse others. They will use their prison time to formulate less ways of getting caught or more ways to be more thorough. In any event, someone will suffer at their hands.
