Webloggin Note:

The following short description is what child rapist Patrick Kennedy did to his 8 year old step daughter. The Supreme Court of the United States decided that the following crime not is deserving of the death penalty because of the notion that crimes and penalties should be proportionate and that the death penalty in this case is cruel and unusual.

L. H. was transported to the Children’s Hospital. An expert in pediatric forensic medicine testified that L. H.’s injuries were the most severe he had seen from a sexual assault in his four years of practice. A laceration to the left wall of the vagina had separated her cervix from the back of her vagina, causing her rectum to protrude into the vaginal structure. Her entire perineum was torn from the posterior fourchette to the anus. The injuries required emergency surgery.

Under the precept of justice that punishment is to be graduated and proportioned to the crime, informed by evolving standards, capital punishment must “be limited to those offenders who commit ‘a narrow category of the most serious crimes’ and whose extreme culpability makes them ‘the most deserving of execution.’ ”

So says the Supreme Court, represented in an opinion delivered by Justice Anthony Kennedy…a star chamber that, apparently, can no longer distinguish between a fact and an opinion.

I have some evolving standards too, and mine say, well, I don’t know what Misha has in mind exactly when he says…

We’ll just have to “take care” of child rapists ourselves, then. They’ll be begging for some “cruel and unusual” lethal injection juice before we’re five minutes into their punishment.

…but I’m betting I like it a whole lot. Something that involves the smell of knife sharpening oil and burning flesh.

I used to have a co-worker who would brag about the messes he’d make at fast food establishments with rude customer service people. Like, if he asked for extra napkins and got nothing but a dumb look out of ‘em…he’d do something like…hold the half drunk milkshake out at arms’ length, and let it plop on the floor. Know what he said to justify that? “I’m gonna get customer service outta you. One way, or the other.”

That applies here just fine, according to my “evolving standards.” When it comes to child rape, we’ll get justice…one way, or the other. Oh what’s that, this is anarchy? Something about refusing to live in a decent, civilised society? Don’t talk to me about it. Talk to the folks like Anthony Kennedy who systematically dismantled that civilised society. Civilization protects kids, or affords justice to kids who have been denied it. Justice…one way, or the other.

Not a threat — a prophecy. We’re going to have some child rapists accidentally shooting themselves from fifteen feet away before they can be taken into custody. Testicles first, breadbasket second, bridge-of-nose third. Whoopsie.

H/T to HotAir (via Rottweiler), who points to some fascinating news of a Rasmussen poll indicating — who’d a thunk it? — most of us think the Supremes have their own personal agendas.

Sixty-percent (60%) of voters believe Supreme Court Justices have their own political agendas, while just 23% believe they remain impartial, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.

Those sentiments are similar along all party lines and among voters of varying ideological beliefs. More men (66%) than women (54%) believe Justices have their own political agendas. While 25% of women believe the justices to be impartial, only 20% of men agree.
