I know this subject is saturated with emotion, but I agree with the Supreme Court’s decision to not allow the execution of child rapists. Yes, it’s a horrible, horrible crime, and it seems somehow uncompassionate to not want child rapists to fry. But if we’re going to have the death penalty, then I’m a life-for-a-life guy.
Tough issue, though. I could be persuaded otherwise, if I believed in the death penalty (which I don’t, for biblical reasons).
