The fate of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg came to symbolize the excesses of the U.S. Red Scare. The couple were convicted of passing atomic secrets to the Soviet Union and sentenced to death. Despite protests that the death sentence against the Rosenbergs -- who had young children -- was unconstitutional, they became the first U.S. civilians to be executed in peacetime for espionage.

I'm trying to avoid ranting, but what ***** excesses. They were guilty. They were punished pursuant to law, after trial and appeals.

I don't blame you, even after events are proved to be true, the Libs still can't admit they were wrong. Have to throw in that slam in their accounts.
