John Muhammed (older sniper) has already been sentenced to death.

Before long, some judge will probably come up with an excuse to spare John Muhammed also.

Ok the Supreme Court has made a moral decision into law, again, but the thing that bothers me on this is that Kennedy went 'outside' the United States to find a law to support his decision...since when do the people on the Supreme Court have the right to go 'outside' to decide our laws???? And when did anyone give them the right to 'make laws'????? They are there to made decisions, NOT LAWS!!! I say we best get something going to end this 'sit on the bench for life' crap...these people are senile.....

I am pretty sure the Supreme Court ruling will be retroactive.

This is just another outrage - another set of injustices thrust upon us by a tyrannical judiciary.

We might have only one last shot at reigning them in (with Bush appointments). If liberals get back in power, we may not see a reversal again short of revolution.

Sorry. I just re-read your comment. I thought you were referring to Malvo. My bad.

At the rate things are going I suspect that the general death penalty will be the next thing ruled unconsitutional. They then will say that prison guards and cops shooting someone will also be cruel and unusual and citizens have no right to self defense. I wouldn't be surprised if they rule that the Military have no right to kill the enemy soon and force them to give up their weapons.

We will be living in a liberal paradise where criminals kill at will and only criminals have guns and legal power and the elites will have bodyguards of these criminals to protect them from other criminals and irate members of the terrified public.
