    Bear in mind that what we know about Sparta seldom comes from Spartans themselves, but others greeks. Exagerations are to be expected, in a way or another (what we perceive as terrible things might have been seen as positive at that time). Romans too had young men roaming the streets looking for slaves to kill, yet they had laws protecting said slaves.
