Repost from BHB...opinions on Supreme Court's opinion
First let me start out by saying that I hope people can respect each other's opinions in the following very touchy subject: (in the event that you feel the need to insult someone else, please refrain from posting, part of what make this site and world wonderful is people are not all the same, and neither are their opions).
Now that I've added the little disclaimer:
The Supreme Court decided today not to extend the death penalty to convicted child rapists. Personally I am pro-death penalty in certain instances. This is one of them.
I dont think it should be something given out like candy. However, it takes a different type of evil to rape an 8 year old child. In the case in front of the court a step father raped his step daughter (I think she was 11 at the time).
This decision had been brought to court in an effort to extent it to include those convicted of rapping children younger than 12.
I think it should have been extended.
Thoughts?
