Supreme Court Rejects Death Penalty for Child Rape
I see another "discussion" regarding the rep system. I'm NOT a big fan of it but some are. Please keep in mind that we ALL have to take the good with the bad and when you do use this system PLEASE do it in all fairness to the other members!
As for myself, I don't give out negative rep.....like the ol' saying goes, "If ya ain't got nothing good to say keep it to yourself".
(This doesn't apply to discussions about politicians though; they got it coming to them!)
Have a good one!:s4:Psycho4Bud Reviewed by Psycho4Bud on . Supreme Court Rejects Death Penalty for Child Rape ??The death penalty is not a proportional punishment for the rape of a child,? Justice Anthony M. Kennedy wrote for the court. He was joined by Justices John Paul Stevens, David H. Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen G. Breyer. The court overturned a ruling by the Louisiana Supreme Court, which had held that child rape is unique in the harm it inflicts not just upon the victim but on society and that, short of first-degree murder, no crime is more deserving of the death penalty.
