Regarding Comment

It would not be considered unusual

chopping

Neither would chopping of the hands of thieves... but that isn't a reason to institute such a policy.

- Indeed.
  
  Perhaps we should start doing so.
  
  We could stone child molesters while we are at it. Or are you similarly opposed to that also?

    “Perhaps we should start doing so.”
    
    Then we could stand with such luminaries of human rights and justice like Saudi Arabia.
    
    There is no reason to permanently cripple people over theft.
    
    “We could stone child molesters while we are at it. Or are you similarly opposed to that also?”
    
    Yes I am. Regardless of the crime there is no cause to resort to such barbaric practices.

    - Wait until you are the victim of such a crime.
      
      Maybe /then/ you will be qualified to answer as to what the punishment should entail.
      
      Otherwise, you are just philosophizing. In the contest between your abstract ideal vs. my visceral actuality, I think mine is more centered in reality.

        “Maybe /then/ you will be qualified to answer as to what the punishment should entail.”
        
        Does that mean that you are not qualified to talk about people who have been executed because they were falsely convicted because it has not yet happened to you?
        
        “Otherwise, you are just philosophizing. In the contest between your abstract ideal vs. my visceral actuality, I think mine is more centered in reality.”
        
        You are basing your decision on your emotional desire for revenge… which is not ‘centered in reality’ but rather poisoned by your desires.
