Bernard Cobb: I think that a truly humane society should give convicts who have more than 5 years of time to do, or men who have been convicted for sexual aggression, the option of voluntary death, or suicide. These men may realize that as scums and dregs, they are just a burden for their societies, so opting out may be a viable alternative for them. As we have recently discussed in our feminist Sunday circle, a kind of self-service guillotine could be installed at penal institutions.

Bernard Cobb: Saya berfikir bahawa masyarakat manusiawi yang benar-benar harus memberikan banduan yang mempunyai lebih daripada 5 tahun waktu untuk melakukan, atau orang-orang yang telah dihukum kerana pencerobohan seksual, pilihan sukarela kematian, atau bunuh diri. Orang-orang ini dapat menyedari bahawa sebagai scums dan ampas, mereka hanya menjadi beban bagi masyarakat mereka, sehingga memilih keluar boleh menjadi alternatif bagi mereka. Baru-baru ini seperti yang telah kita bahas dalam lingkaran Minggu feminis kita, semacam guillotine perkhidmatan mandiri boleh dipasang pada lembaga jenayah.
