The USSC is going to learn a lesson one day

Court rejects death penalty for raping children

Justice Kennedy says the punishment does not fit the crime. Will the "all wise" justice please explain what punishment will fit the crime? How does one become un-raped? Now if they were to hold the scum who did this until the child was an adult and then let the now adult have 15 minutes to explain why what the scum did was wrong while the scum was tied down and crowbars were available to the now adult person, then maybe I might agree.

But Kennedy and the other four justices seem to forget that the courts are only effective when the people think the courts are working. When people think the courts are not working, the courts will lose their power because the people or the government will simply ignore them and then it becomes mob rule or he with the biggest gun rule. And judging from the comments, the people are believing the courts are not working.
