QUESTION OF THE WEEK #128

Worst lodging ever

This Week's Question:

In 1977, the Supreme Court banned the death penalty for persons convicted of the rape of an adult. Since then, every person executed in the United States has been convicted for a crime that involved killing.

The Court just agreed to hear the appeal of a death row inmate in Louisiana who was convicted for the rape of a child.

In your opinion, if it's ok to execute murderers but not ok to execute adult rapists, should it be ok to execute child rapists?
