If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why?
I live in Canada, and the one thing I would change is how violent criminals are punished. For example, if you assault someone, you get assaulted. If you rape someone, you get raped. If you torture someone, you get tortured, and if you kill someone, you get killed in the exact same way. We need to stop coddling violent offenders.
Completely agree!

I agree it sounds like Hammurabi’s code
I’m unfamiliar with Hammurabi. Can you explain please?
Hammurabi’s code states an “eye for an eye”.
So anything you do is done to you, which sounds like what you’re talking about, justice through reciprocity.
Ah, yes, I have heard of this code, just not the name. Thank you for the clarification ☺️
I agree too. Particularly the rape one.
Yes. Imagine if Giselle Pelicot’s husband had to endure everything he did to her. Sounds like justice to me.
I agree the violence needs to be punished, but what if you got the wrong person? That would be my only fear – I can’t help but feel that the rich and powerful would still get away with it all, and the poor would be set up to take the punishment for them… lots to think about! Linda xx
You make points indeed.
My heart screams one reply, but my head is whispering caution… but I love responses like yours because I’ll be thinking about it for days to come! xx
