NO KILL I - to borrow a little from Star Trek. The US Supreme Court seems to be on an anti-death kick. Today they overturned a bunch of judge-ordered death sentences. See the BBC story: US court overturns death sentences. Last week it was declared unconstitutional to execute mentally disabled killers.

Let's punish people justly. Can we do that, please, without giving government employees the authority to decide to kill an individual off?
