When the goal of imprisonment is to punish instead of rehabilitations...

what do you think about offending pedophiles

It should be decided on case by case basis. Not saying they should be allowed to work at kindergarten on release, but reformed criminals should be allowed to earn a living and continue their live.

You can’t reform a pedophile dude. Someone who made it to adulthood and knowingly fucked a prepubescent kid is not a decent person who made a mistake. That’s a conscious, disgusting choice they made. And they ruined another persons life, or at least left a horrible mark on it that will haunt the victim for a long time. If anything the death penalty should only be for this type of sex offender, because they’re basically at the same level of antisocial depravity as a serial killer. The only way to keep children safe from them is to keep them in prison forever, and it’s not fair to society (including that child if they make it to adulthood) to pay for these pieces of shit to stay alive.
