I'd say RAPE and CHILD SEX CRIMES are PROPORTIONATE to the death penalty cuz they harm the person over and over and over again. Unlike the piece of shit that committed the crime who only has to PAY for the crime ONCE, the victim is PLAGUED by the painful memory.
Is that fair? Is that "proportionate"?

Pedo's are wrong. Rape is wrong. No Question. I believe the death penality should only be used aginst someone guilty of murder in the 1st degree.
Once you start killing people for other crimes, where does it stop? Ous system of justice often finds the politically incorrect or those without the means to defend themselves guilty while the well off are able to buy their way out.
