"Actually, if ya' jus' gotta' kill somebody why not take the rapist out and execute him."

In the Old Testament, this is exactly what would have happened. The rapist would have been stoned and the child and his/her mother would have lived.

Today we murder the innocent and protect the guilty in way too many cases.

They also would have stoned her if she failed to cry out (Deuteronomy 22:23). If your arguing for instituting O.T. law, expect me to fight your tooth and nail.
