The Netherlands Volleyball Federation says Steven van de Velde has shown "self-insight and reflection" since his 2016 conviction for raping a 12-year-old.
I see no problem with it. The corrections facility worked. I am of the belief that criminals are the product of poor social conditioning, and that the correct behaviors can be reconditioned.
Based on it being nearly impossible to change these sorts of things. If you want to have sex with a 12 year old, you cant just make that go away (without pills).
I think the point of corrections is to make them never do it again, regardless of their desire. I mean, I want to save the world from billionaires. And if I did it once and was “corrected,” that wouldn’t remove the desire, it would just prevent me from doing it again.
Neither of us know the corrective actions, the terms of release, or even the details of the crime. It’s not really fair to continue to punish them because some people want to do it.
That said, I sure wouldn’t trust him around kids, and I think that scenario should be covered in the terms of release.

How do you know the corrections facility worked? I feel like it would be easy to say the exact things you are supposed to say.
If a person does their time, they should be done with punishment. Whether or not the punishment fits the crime is another thing entirely.
Sure, but I dont think the facility actually changed anything about the person.
Based on what though?

I stopped at “save the world from billionaires.” Dude, you seem reasonable, but just stop listening to all the dumb people, they lie to you.
Be more specific.
You believe pedophilia is a product of poor social conditioning?
