Re: Comment on this statement relating to crime and punishment
Castration is in no way equivalent to the death penalty. The death penalty is irreversible, while castration requires quarterly injections of Depo-Provera (progesterone). If a sex offender was wrongfully castrated, the procedure would be reversed once the injection wore off.

Re: Comment on this statement relating to crime and punishment
Surgical castration would be hideous and cruel, but still not equivalent to the death penalty. Cutting off testicles of sex offenders would be more like cutting off the hands of thieves. A wrongfully convicted person would be disabled until medical science advanced significantly, but he would still be able to continue with some quality of life. Of course each of these punishments is unacceptable and unnecessary.
