I was just reading my local newspaper and there was this article about a Supreme Court ruling made Wendsday about the death penatly to child rapist. And the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that it was unconstitutional to execute a child rapist. This case was brought to there attention because of a Louisiana law which said anyone convicted of raping a child could be executed. So I was wondering what everyone's opionon is on this case?

WOW!! Call it a coincidence, but i just read about this story as well. This is the most stupid observe thing i can think of. How in the world can something like this pass first of all. I mean talking about that it was too obscence. WHat about what they did that poor innocent child that they violated in the long run. I think that this issue needs to be put up again adn a new outcome needs to happen because this is a mess.

Yes I agree with you. But I can see where the judges are coming from but its still a very sad situtation amd i hope gets reviewed again. Because the way the judges are making it sound to me is the child has to die before the rapist should be excuted and really does it need to go that far?
