Legislators rebel against the judiciary

Unbowed, politicians vow to execute child rapists

Let's put aside for the moment, if we can, the issue of whether the Supreme Court made the right decision. I for one am appalled at these politicians. They apparently do not respect the very system of checks and balances.

To me, few qualities in a politician could be more disqualifying.

While I don't believe that it was the SC's place to make any decision on this issue (it wasn't really a Constitutionality question), the law must be respected. Lawmen who basically say "pants the law" have no business being lawmen.

COMPLETELY agreed.
