Ahh good reply. I like this part
No, I'm not. That's not the government's place--and the judiciary, especially, should not be issuing orders to sterilize someone. People have a right to reproduce. They do not have a right to kill or abuse their offspring. Can't the government punish them for the latter without taking away the former?

that's a good way of putting it. I still think its a shaky line between the government deciding the just penalty is death and them saying changing it to sterilization. But i don't agree that sterilization is a "just" penalty. I guess i was more a fan of the humiliation factor. Just because a child killer can't make her own kids to kill, doesn't mean that we don't have a child killer running around Atlanta

I seem to remember a woman who killed 3 or 4 of her kids, some watched while she killed others. she was convicted and given the death penalty then they turned it all around and she got nothing. Post partem depression or some such crap. This woman is black and she is in the south, believe me there aint gonna be any tube tying.They just havent gotten themselves together yet. they will. She will be pregnant again inside a year.
