The rule of 5 strikes again

I am not a big death penalty guy. I’d much prefer human debris like Christopher Simmons spend what seems like an eternity at hard labor before spending what will be an actual eternity in Hell. But alas, the ACLU and Libs are sure to raise a fuss if the prison cable goes out for more than 30 minutes, or the prison library is not stocked with latest and most disgusting pornography. And the same groups will howl “TORTURE” if anything resembling real work is required of one of their most reliable voting blocks.

No, I’m not even a little bit interested in rehabilitation. That’s a job for the Churches, if they can get the little darlings attention. I’m only interested in making criminals as uncomfortable as possible for as long as possible, commensurate with their crime. Violent criminals should spend 18 hours a day at hard, hard meaningless labor, in the worst conditions - the hotter or colder the weather the better.

That does not happen in the US. So, for me, the death penalty is fall-back position. As long as the prison system is more concerned with prisoner rights and comfort than extracting a full measure of retribution for victims, then there needs to be something else. That something is the death penalty. I am of the opinion that we need a death a penalty on the books. And, if you have it, you must occasionally use it. I’d kill 100 piss-ants like Christopher Simmons over 10 years to save one Shirley Crook.

The Supreme Court decided two days ago, that they’d kill 1,000,000 Shirley Cook’s before freeing the world of one piece of human garbage like Christopher Simmons. And if that weren’t bad enough, five dopes in robes based their decision on the fact that they believe 47% constitutes a majority. The dopes in black note, in the majority opinion, that a majority of Americans support their opinion in spite of the fact that only 18 states or 47% have laws prohibiting the execution of minors. And if a majority of Americans do believe as the 5 justices think they believe, wouldn't that belief be reflected in the jury pool? So why this decision? But wait, there’s more!

Because calling 47% a majority isn’t dumb enough for the five weasels in black, they go on to base their decision on international norms. That’s right the Constitution isn’t enough for these five craven lunatics, American rights and law are now going to be subject to international norms.
Republicans need to make this “The Issue” in the mid-terms and send Chuck Schumer and Pat Leahy into the 61-39 obscurity they deserve in the Senate.
