Just let these people go free and let them live where ever they want to live. Even if its next to a school or park. Leave these innocent people alone.....

OHHH WAIT

Thats what our court systems already do.

Why waste money keeping them in prison for life, just turn back time to public executions and hang em all.

If we have to stay overseas at war. Lets take all our convicts and dress them up in uniforms, bring our troops back and send these convicts over there instead. You do notice I dindt mention giving them anything but uniforms, hint, no weapons.lol

"The death penalty, while never proven to be an effective deterrent, would however, prevent a repeat offense"

Hard to Prove when all studies were done by ANTI-Death Penalty advocates out to PROVE THEIR POINT..
ALso..it's Difficult to see it as a deterrent when it takes 25 years to carry out the sentence..THANKS to those SAME advocates..

The SAME is true with the so called expense of the Death Penalty..It ISN'T the Sentence itself that cost so much,, it's the expense of the DELAYS..

Want real justice? Just transfer them to general population. I understand they LOVE child rapists. That way, the *inmates* "take care" of the child rapists, not the prison staff. Everybody is happy... well, except for the rapist.

Either that, or we can just make their lives so miserable that they'll be suing us to kill them.

I think we need to add the webmasters name to the execution list for deleting posts for trying to help the elderly.

Along with this jerk of a webmaster, yes I think they should start to fry anyone serving life without parole. Reduce the taxpayers costs of keeping them. I will even supply the ammo for free.

No Killing them is to good for them, I say we cut off their offending member with a dull butter knife...better yet use a spoon

Oryguncb, that would not stop a rapist. It is a proven fact. They are sick individuals who are doing this because they are sick individuals. Cutting off their penis is not going to stop them. Some rapist are women, what can you cut off of them? I guess you can sew them up? Nah! At least we can keep our guns!!!

The reason behind the ruling was that it violates the ruling against cruel and unusual punishment for a crime. The punishment is supposed to be appropriate to the criminal action taken. The death penalty by our own law is only to be applied when a life is taken, hence an equal punishment to fit the crime.

I agree with the death penalty but in this case it was bound to be overturned because it would have been to easily abused. I think the application of the death penalty to me is something that needs to be addressed on a case by case basis, but with most District Attorneys it's basis is a political decision not an ethical one.

The current laws on the book make no justification for mental state or several other issues of legal precedence. Hence the act of the crime alone can justify the death penalty and other circumstances such as mental illness can't be factored in to many of the state laws supporting the death penalty.

I hate these people as much as anyone else but this was one step back to where we imposed the death penalty for everything from burglary to robbery (last death penalty for a robbery was in the 60's.) I think when we can be objective and truly impartial then we can apply such a permanent punishment to child rapists, until then we need to err on the better side of caution lest we be the one attending our son's or daughters execution for shoplifting.

If you don't think it could move to that, read some of the responses hear. Emotion is a powerful thing and hate is one of the most powerful. Thinking with hate means we can not rationally approach a so

evilblonde - well at least you made my point for me.

I agree with the death penalty but IT'S NEVER BEEN PROVEN TO BE A DETERRENT! if thats the argument than you are missing the point. It's justice for the victim of an equal and proportionate measure to the crime.

How many BJ's are they getting a day? Their brains aren't fuctioning! It would seem that our U.S. Supreme Court are still making things easy for the criminals. I wonder if they would feel the same way if it was their child!
