The U.S. Supreme Court is currently hearing a case challenging the constitutionality of the death penalty for retarded individuals. What do you think?

• 

  The notion of executing retarded people is deeply offensive. It should be called the execution of the developmentally disabled.

  I'd rather see these killers executed than force the American taxpayer to spend thousands on lemon cookies and safety scissors for the next 50 years.

  You'd think judges would be lenient, since they probably were pretty easy to catch.

• 

  How can we execute criminals for actions they don't even fully comprehend? They just wanted to pet the pretty lady's soft hair.

  Don Duquette
  Truck Driver

• 

  Do we really need to waste money and resources killing the retarded when sending them into a hedge maze would be just as effective?

  Art Gordon
  Systems Analyst

• 

  Even more shocking is the fact that hundreds of these executions were carried out by a Texas governor with a 57 IQ.
